Hi Chris.  Are you buying from the builder , an estate agent, or a "2nd hand" property ?

Personally I'd get a solicitor to check everything over if "their solicitor" is doing all the leg work.   Your next problem is how do you find a solicitor you can hire !

Even if everything is handled well and is above board. It's still a big leap of faith , and peace of mind may be worth the additional cost.

thanks for that il try these web sites for flights see how i get on as for teh property its a resale not a new build

Use a solicitor for the peace of mind.   The Turkish Consulate web page has a list of local solicitors, I believe as does the British Consulate web page.
That way, you know you are choosing your own and not having one chosen for you.  Or, I am sure you will get some good recommendations from people on this forum.

Hi Chris, you wouldnt contemplate buying a house in the UK without a solicitor so why would you do it here?

There are some good recomendations on here for reputable solicitors particulary the one Scunner mentioned.

Good luck
