Title deeds matter most with land
Land is where title-deed category is most critical. A Turkish Freehold (pre-1974) deed is the gold standard; disputed or leasehold land carries higher risk. Always have an independent, TRNC-registered lawyer verify the exact deed category, zoning and building permissions before you commit. Read our safety & title deeds guide.
