What we check when evaluating a property

  • Whether the title deed carries a mortgage, lien or legal annotation
  • Whether the zoning status matches the actual use (residential / commercial)
  • Building permit, occupancy certificate and seismic-code compliance
  • Project-specific details like dues, common areas and the management plan for residential developments
  • Whether the asking price is reasonable against comparable sales and rental data in the area
  • Surrounding development plans that could affect long-term value appreciation

From the official data

Housing Sales: Before and After the Earthquake

TurkStat's house-sales statistics, based on title-deed records, show 23,120 homes sold in Hatay in 2022 (sum of the districts listed in the district table), 10,538 in 2023, 13,919 in 2024 and 15,992 in 2025. Hatay accounted for 0.95% of the 1,688,910 homes sold nationwide in 2025.

First-hand share (Türkiye: 32.0%)25.3%2025[1]
Mortgaged share (Türkiye: 14.0%)7.7%2025[1]

What does this data mean for an investor?

Sales fell 54% in 2023 versus 2022, then rose to 13,919 in 2024 and 15,992 in 2025 (14.9% on the previous year; Türkiye +14.3%). The 2025 volume is roughly 69% of the 2022 volume: transaction activity is recovering but has not reached its pre-earthquake level. Hatay's share of national sales was 0.94% in 2024 and 0.95% in 2025.

The mortgaged share (7.7%) is below the national average (14.0%), while the first-hand share (25.3%) is above it (32.0%). Together they suggest that deals are relatively mortgage-free and that new-build supply carries weight in sales (interpretation).

What it means for an investor: transaction volume says something about market liquidity; district-level counts give an idea of how easy it may be to find a counterparty in a given district. The data contain no price information.

Limitation: These data do not show housing prices; they reflect the number of title-deed transactions. TurkStat's district table never lists Kumlu, and in some years omits Altınözü and Yayladağı, so the sum can be smaller than the provincial total. A separate source (e.g. the CBRT House Price Index) is needed for price trends.

House Price and Rent Index: The Hatay Region

According to the CBRT's August 2026 bulletin, in the TR63 region covering Hatay, Kahramanmaraş and Osmaniye the house price index rose 22.1% in nominal terms on the same month a year earlier (Türkiye: 23.0%). The new-tenant rent index rose 26.4% in the same region (Türkiye: 26.4%).

What does this data mean for an investor?

The TR63 region's house price rise (22.1%) is 0.9 points below the national average and mid-table among the 20 regions (lowest 13.0%, highest 27.0%). Prices around Hatay are therefore rising more slowly than in metropolises such as İstanbul (26.3%). The rent index rose 26.4%, 4.3 points more than the price index, which may point to a rising rent-to-price ratio (interpretation, since indices show change, not level).

Nationally, the price rise corresponds to a 6.5% real decline: the nominal rise stayed below inflation. The bulletin gives no regional real change for TR63, but since its nominal rise (22.1%) is below the national one, the real loss there may be larger (interpretation). What it means for an investor: a plan that treats housing as a store of value should look at this indicator together with rental yield; a nominal rise alone is not evidence of return.

Limitation: The indices refer to the Hatay–Kahramanmaraş–Osmaniye region (TR63), not to Hatay alone; no Hatay-only value is published. The indices (2023=100) give neither a price per m² nor a rent amount, only change. By the CBRT's method, house values come from valuation reports prepared for loan applications (a completed sale is not required) and quality effects are removed by hedonic regression. The bulletin address is updated each month; the August 2026 issue is used here.

Building Permits and Occupancy Permits: A Signal of New Housing Supply

According to TurkStat, dwellings with a building permit in Hatay numbered 8,064 in 2022, 3,970 in 2023, 34,671 in 2024 and 68,990 in 2025. Dwellings with an occupancy permit over the same years were 10,095, 1,600, 8,457, 24,476.

Dwellings with occupancy permit24,4762025[1]
Hatay's share of national permits5.8%2025[1]

What does this data mean for an investor?

Hatay's share of national permitted dwellings in 2025 is 5.8%, and its share of occupancy permits 3.5%, while it holds 1.8% of Türkiye's population. Its permit share is therefore about 3.2 times its population share: construction activity is disproportionately intense.

In 2024–2025, 103,661 dwellings received permits against 32,933 that received occupancy permits, a ratio of about 3.1 to one. This suggests that a large share of permitted homes had not yet received occupancy by the end of 2025, i.e. may still be under construction. The two flows are not an exact stock difference (permit-to-occupancy can take years, and some permits are renewed or cancelled), so this is a directional signal, not a stock calculation.

What it means for an investor: homes receiving occupancy over the coming years can affect first-hand sales and rental supply. Before buying, the permit and occupancy status and the construction stage of a specific project should be verified separately in the official records.

Limitation: From Q2 2025 TurkStat widened coverage beyond municipalities to all authorities entitled to issue building documents, so the 2025 figure is not fully comparable with earlier years and the effect of the change in Hatay cannot be separated from the table. 2024–2025 data have been revised. Unpermitted buildings are out of scope; the data count dwellings, not quality or price.
