Those of you covered by Intasure may be interested in the following minutes taken from a meeting held under the auspices of Kalkan Daiy news.....here we go again!
Most of the time on this agenda item was spent discussing the Intasure problem. In a nutshell, foreign residents who insure their property through Intasure are deemed to be breaking Turkish law. The Police in Kas have obtained a list of policy holders, (we don't know how this was obtained), and have been instructed by the Ministry of Finance to advise policy holders of the problem - thereby providing them with an opportunity to do something about it.
Apparently, there are 19 properties in Kas and 108 in Kalkan, that are potentially affected. It has been suggested that policyholders will be required to respond to the Police or Jandarma, to confirm that they have received this notification. However, Kalkan Turkish Local News spoke to the Jandarma in Kalkan this week, and they have not yet received any such instructions to approach policy holders in Kalkan. We will keep you posted on this.
Incidentally, KTLN has spoken to the Managing Director of Intasure in the UK, who is presently awaiting legal advice on the matter from his Turkish lawyers.
