How to Buy Property with Bitcoin: Step by Step

The process has a few clear steps:

1. Choose your dream property

Choose the property best suited for you from our rich property pool.

Compare your shortlisted properties against that brief. Note which requirements each property meets and anything you still need to establish during a viewing. Share those notes with your agent to identify which property you want to make an offer on.

2. Negotiate and Agree on Payment Terms

After choosing your dream property, agree on a payment plan. You don't have to tell the owner that you will pay using a crypto payment method, because whether cryptocurrency or not, we will pay the owner in fiat currency.

Prepare your proposed payment schedule for the negotiation. Record the property reference, the agreed purchase price, the currency the seller will receive and when each payment is due. These details give you a clear basis for reviewing the purchase agreement.

3. Send Crypto

Inform your agent that you want to pay in crypto. After we receive your KYC (Know Your Customer) documents, you can send any cryptocurrency to Istanbul Homes’ crypto accounts abroad to the international digital asset market.

Request the KYC document list from your agent and prepare clear, complete copies of the requested documents. Before sending funds, confirm the destination account details and the cryptocurrency you will transfer against the instructions supplied for your purchase.

4. Exchanging

We convert your cryptocurrency abroad into fiat currency at the real market price with your permission for timing and exchange rate. After we receive your cryptocurrency in our accounts, you can convert any time you want.

Have your agreed fiat payment amount available during the exchange discussion. Compare it with the fiat proceeds of the cryptocurrency you intend to convert at the displayed rate. This lets you assess the conversion against the payment you need to make.

5. Seller receives real money

Your money comes to Turkey through international banks to our accounts. USD swift comes in 2-3 days, EURO swift comes in 5-7 days. After paying money to the seller, you get the title deed.

When planning completion, allow for both the exchange stage described in the FAQ and the bank transfer period for your payment currency. Keep the transfer confirmation available when following the progress of your funds with our team.

If you buy a property with Bitcoin through Istanbul Homes, conditions are as follows:
• We are converting the bitcoin to cash only for properties you buy through Istanbul Homes.

Accepted Cryptocurrencies for Buying Property

All cryptocurrencies exchangeable on the platforms are welcome. Generally, people pay 60% Bitcoin, 20% USDT/USDC, and 10% Ethereum. These currencies have the most volume for real estate payments.

Is Buying Property with Crypto in Türkiye Legal and Safe?

In Türkiye, the process runs within the legal framework through the central bank.

Match the property description and payment terms in your agreement to the purchase you have negotiated. Resolve any differences before signing. Keep your signed agreement and payment records together so you can track each transfer against the agreed terms.

Crypto and Turkish Citizenship by Investment

Istanbul Homes is competent in citizenship by investment. We have provided Turkish citizenship with bitcoin many times before.

Include your citizenship plans in your initial property brief so our team can address that goal during property selection.
