Sunnyshores,
Title Deeds,UK notary charges about £40 a signature.
electricity set up £172/water set up £172,Furniture,But was much the same as UK prices,
Sunnyshores,
I am trying to understand why you used a UK notary office,!
Your water and electricity connection's also seem rather high,! is your property isolated or away from the mains supply,!

Have you actually bought,or have you just signed contracts,and you are awaiting, military clearence,!

You dont mention cost regarding making a will.or House/contents insurance,very important issues,

HDPete,
İ suggest you visit Turkiye and talk to someone who has no problem with the Turkish language,

A tax number is needed, its very easy to obtain,you will need it also to open a bank account,again very easy,

Costs.can vary,some agents will say its included in the price, as will some devolpers,again varys from area to area,

There are many solicitor's in Turkiye,that specialise in property sales to foreigners and they can speak english,One solicitor in one area may charge.£350, another.£700.ask for a quote's.,try getting some one to reccomend you one,

It is advisable to update your UK will to include your Turkish property,(also get it translated to turkish)

Turkish property/contents insurance,available in the UK,

Furniture costs,aproximatly,£3.500 for a 3 bedroom apartment/house should cover the full cost.that is including curtains carpets white goods etc,etc,far cheaper than the UK,

There are many management/ agencie's in Bodrum,who can help you to rent out your property.you will obviously need them for general cleaning etc,

Here is a pdf guide for the rental income's declaration for non-resident foreigners in Turkiye,This guide is prepared according to legal provisions of Turkish law in force.http://www.gib.gov.tr/fileadmin/beya...tal_income.pdf

Pete,Good luck,
