Had they not embarked on a building frenzie in the first place, with everyone jumping on the bandwagon, they might have managed to sell a steady flow of properties without having to open the floodgates to the world and his wife in a hope of diminishing the stockpile of empty, aging 'new builds'! In a lot of ways the Turks are like lemmings, if one jumps they all jump, pitty someone hadn't thought to hold back and see what happened to the first one that jumped!
