What factors should be considered to make a farmhouse attractive as an investment?
A farmhouse purchased in a problem-free area on the Silivri-Tekirdağ line, with good content and at a fair market price (not a bargain), will definitely generate attractive financial value within 10 years at the latest.
With the right approach and management, owning a farmhouse is also an attractive investment.
Farmhouses are always associated with their very large plots of land, extensive indoor spaces that can offer spacious and unique living opportunities for large groups, tranquility, and an authentic lifestyle.
All of these are fundamental motivations for owning a farmhouse.
Individuals in the upper income segment acquire farmhouses because they seek a second living space that is both close to the city center and allows them to live a high-quality, healthy, and authentic life with their loved ones in nature.
In my opinion, the ideal farmhouse living areas for wealthy people living on the European side of Istanbul are along the Silivri-Tekirdağ line.
Does owning a farmhouse only provide the opportunity for a high-quality, authentic life in nature?
In my opinion, no.
If approached correctly, owning a farmhouse is also a valuable investment.
As of today, there are 19 farmhouse listings for sale in Tekirdağ province.
In the European side of Istanbul, there are 53.
As is known, farmhouses are enclosed structures built on large plots of land. The fundamental element determining the value of a farmhouse is the land, not the enclosed structure itself.
As is the case everywhere, in the Thrace region, the general value and future prospects of the land are clear, making farmhouse purchase a low-risk decision.
Provided that certain critical points are taken into consideration.
First and foremost, it is crucial to verify with the relevant municipality and city planning directorates whether the enclosed structures within the farmhouse were constructed officially and in compliance with current regulations.
In my opinion, seeking advice from an expert with both theoretical and practical knowledge of the subject is also essential during the official verification process.
Another important aspect to consider when buying a farmhouse is location.
Is there a future appreciation potential for the area? Are there any regional or parcel-specific risks or obstacles to value appreciation? This needs to be carefully analyzed.
The population living in the area and the backgrounds of other farmhouse owners should also be meticulously analyzed.
When buying a farmhouse, one crucial aspect to consider is the quality of the indoor space, its level of maintenance, and the content of the social areas.
A farmhouse is a premium segment of nature living space.
In this segment, the farmhouse should have amenities and quality that meet the expectations of those seeking such a living space.
I would also like to add that a farmhouse purchased in a problem-free area along the Silivri-Tekirdağ line, with good content and at a fair market price (not a bargain), will definitely generate attractive financial value within 10 years at the latest.
The minimum time someone should wait for an investment in a farmhouse is 5 years.
