Istanbul, Turkeyfor a rental-income investor
Weak fit
Weighted to a rental-income investor's priorities, Istanbul scores 32/100 — weak fit. No OECD house-price valuation for Turkey, so the property entry-window is not scored — AI-Home's DLD data fills this.
Stable, sustainable rental cash flow — priced sensibly, with real tenant demand and cheap financing.
