Change by region

Region Annual Monthly Real annual
Türkiye +22.3% +1.2% −5.7%
Istanbul +26.8% +2.0% −2.3%
Ankara +22.0% +0.2% −5.9%
Izmir +21.0% +1.0% −6.8%

Why the real change matters

Nominal growth includes the loss of the currency’s purchasing power. The real change compares house price growth with general consumer price inflation and shows whether property has preserved its value. It is calculated using TurkStat’s Consumer Price Index.

Reading the data

The index shows the average trend across a region. The price of an individual flat can differ markedly depending on location, age, title status and comparables. See our Market Data page for up-to-date charts and the full series since 2010.
