when i next go over to altinkum in august, i have been told by the estate agent that i need to pay £600 - this is costs for the transfer of the title deed enabling the tapu to be in my name and also £300 for the water and electric connection. reading between the lines, is £300 for the connection of the 2 utility bills into my name on a new build a bit high?

Sounds expensive.

We paid 52 lira to have the electric transferred over this month and the water was transferred over with the house but i do not know what it is for a new property or if all water is transferred with the house

I think there is a difference between transferring an existing and arranging a new connection

emma if possible go into tedas and take your tapu in with your passport.

Emma check the Buying cost thread out, ıt shouldnt cost you more than 100 GBP for both water and electric including the deposits you have to put on them Ask the agent for reciepts for the connections and you should find you arent paying this much.

As an addon to what I said this morning just done water and electrics for a client (well actually Mehmet the builder did ) and it came to a grand total of 290 Lira or about 100 GBP as I said.

We paid 90ytl deposit for water meter 1 , 30ytl deposit for water meter 2 (garden) 30 ytl deposit for electricity and 10ytl to have the paperwork transferred to our name. All these costs were on an existing connection so it looks like it only cost 10ytl for the paperwork and the rest deposit for future consumption.

New build is allways more than resale for this
