Turkish legal system leaves the sale and purchasing operations to land offices. Notaries do not have the authorization of executing the purchasing process. Notaries can only deal with the payment dates. The real purchasing operation is executed specifically in the land offices in a later time. All the provisions of the contract are translated by a translator in here especially for foreigners. For example, for determining if any third parties have any rights or if there is any mortgage or real estate debt on the land or the real estate. Following this, registration is completed and the land registry is handed to the seller. Seller gives the land registry to the buyer/buyers after the determined amount is paid.
Purchase agreement
If you come to an agreement on the purchasing of a real estate you go to the land registry with the property owner. If you have any questions regarding the provisions of the purchasing agreement, an inspected translator goes through your questions. This is a legal responsibility concerning purchase agreements with foreigners.

If you are registered to the land registry as the new owner, you have to pay the land registry and property purchasing taxes immediately at the place. Then you shall receive the land registry document showing that you are the new owner of the real property. The registry document is a legal document and has the same effect in Turkey as the land purchasing agreement drawn by a notary in Germany has.
Ordinary notary operations are not necessary here. But it can be executed by request (for an extra charge). Notary is just a witness of the agreement process in Turkey and does not have the authority of a notary in Germany.
