Well that's the point, if BNP Paribas can get any for 40k, we could all buy one for say 45k giving the bank a great profit. Unfortunately they can't get any for 40k, because they are worth 70k.

:D

Well said Scunner, your postings illustrate clearly that you are a man on integrity, why else would you offer so much advice and support to us CBF's, I have found the forum you created to be of immense value.

Why thank you Kevin  :)

Because I won't tell somebody else's customer where I get mortgages for MY customers, I must be lying. Thank God he is somebody else's customer :D

Does that mean the one I was buying for £41k has just gone up so I have made a pre-purchase profit - or do I have to pay more now??? :(

Once my commission, purchase tax & capital gains tax are deducted you'll quite possibly break even  ;)

In all seriousness - when we think back - we were so lucky to:

1. Find this forum - by chance
2. Get given the names of 2 people we could trust Cenk & Keith
3. Go like lambs to the slaughter but come out unscathed
(we even have the right box ticked on our Tapu  :))

I have been reading some posts on another forum that covers a wider area and some of the horror stories that I have read make Calis / Fethiye look very timid compared to many places that seem more like the "wild west"

Ian

Ps And I thought I was bright - I was just lucky!!!!

I beleive you make your own luck in life. When stepping into the unknown, ask questions of people willing to advise and not critisise. Then act on your findings. You hear many times of people asking advice then doing the complete opposite.

Who would you suggest - do you have access to mortgages for properties in Turkey?



Wouldn't like to upset you lot! I think if you read up to the point above the chap was asking for help he wasn't to know Scunners position?

Chill out!

Unlikely but possible!!! Why would he ask if I had access to mortgages in Turkey if I was a fishmonger from Rochdale? No, I think he was quite aware. Anyway, up until this point I had tried to be helpful:

I don't think anyone needs to chill out, the above wasn't rude either, the first rude post was the next one, his. Maybe you can't see the situation here. If you let me know your line of business, and a list of your suppliers, would you be happy for your competitors to know them, and the details of your trading terms? All I said was (and started with the most courteous word 'Please') that I keep some information close to my chest to hopefully keep a competitive edge for me and my customers.

For the billion other things that might advise and assist for free, I set up CBF.
