18th April 2007 10:23
British company invests $200mn in Turkish developmentsLeading London based firm Financial Dimensions, experts in real estate and project development, have committed to invest 200 million dollars in property developments in Turkey over the next years. Work is already underway in the first location, Bodrum, with a fifty million dollar property construction project. The ‘Bay peninsula’ project, in partnership with Günyap Construction, will involve construction of 57 properties built on 90 thousand square meters of land.

Bodrum’s Bay Peninsula development is located on the side of a mountain 160 metres above ground level with sea views and access to beaches. The property development will include villas of varying size each with a swimming pool, which the company will rent out on behalf of owners when they are not visiting, and apartments, ranging from 82 to 145 sq meters. There are also plans to build a spa, various restaurants and a boutique hotel with a capacity of 70 guests. Staff are to be trained by Financial Dimensions one year prior to opening to provide a range of exclusive services including housekeeping, concierge, and tailoring.

Investment in holiday property complexes has become an increasingly popular concept, with many overseas property investors offering similar properties and services to buyers who want a holiday home they can make money from during the rest of the year. The Bay Peninsula development’s success is guaranteed by 70% of residences having been sold already, and will undoubtedly herald further property developments in Bodrum.
