Investment Pathways

Three ways to structure a Turkish citizenship investment.

FOA Invest organizes your route around risk preference, liquidity expectations, and whether you want pure eligibility, rental yield, or diversified exposure.

Route 01

Residential Property

Curated residential assets aligned with citizenship criteria, typically in Istanbul and other high-demand urban areas.

  • Strong fit for applicants wanting a clean, direct eligibility route.
  • Can generate rental income during the mandatory 3-year holding period.
  • Best for balancing passport outcome with tangible long-term ownership.
USD 400,000+
Route 02

Commercial Assets

Yield-driven opportunities in strategic Turkish hubs for investors who prioritize cash flow alongside citizenship eligibility.

  • Suitable for investors with stronger income expectations.
  • Often positioned around office, mixed-use, or business-centered demand zones.
  • Supported by the same legal and valuation due diligence framework.
USD 400,000+
Route 03

Portfolio Packages

Multiple-unit strategies for diversified exposure across neighborhoods, use cases, or income profiles while remaining citizenship compliant.

  • Useful for clients who prefer to spread concentration risk.
  • Can combine different unit types under one acquisition strategy.
  • Helps investors think beyond eligibility toward asset mix and exit logic.
USD 400,000+
All routes are arranged around the USD 400,000 threshold and supported with valuation review, title verification, and transaction guidance.
Eligibility Criteria

The legal structure is straightforward when the property and paperwork are correct.

The program itself is clear. The risk is usually not the law, but poor execution. FOA Invest keeps the route organized around compliant acquisition, document control, and timing.

Requirement 01

Minimum Threshold

The combined appraised value of one or more qualifying properties must be at least USD 400,000.

Requirement 02

3-Year Hold Period

The property must remain under a non-alienation annotation for at least 3 years after acquisition.

Requirement 03

Clean Documentation

Identity documents, criminal record, legal source of funds, and title deed records must be properly prepared and submitted.

Requirement 04

Compliant Seller and Valuation

The purchase must satisfy government valuation and transfer rules. This is where legal due diligence matters most.

Istanbul

FOA Invest checks the property first, so the citizenship file does not break later.

Transaction structure, appraisal logic, title integrity, and file sequencing are reviewed before capital is committed.
