just to introduce ourselves. me and my wife michelle are selling up and hope to move to calis area around oct.we are hoping to rent for 6 months while we find a house to buy.we have been holidaying in turkey for the last 11 years and love the country and its people have never been to calis only marmaris and icmeler.but feel calis would be a perfect place to retire to. this forum has been so helpful in planning our move to turkey so it seemed rude not to join.

Hi Spannerman
Myself and Stu are also new members but agree the forum has been a great help.
We also are planning to move to Calis certainly by this time next year, so we would be interested to hear from you on any help or advice along the way.  We have an apartment in Calis already so have gone through the buying mode which was quite straight forward, when we move over permanently we probably buy another house and keep the apartment for rental income, hopefully we can then live off that?,talking of which have you or anybody got any guidance to the approx amount we would need to live on each month (eating and drinking modestly), I have had a look on the search facility, but there are so many different views??
Good Luck
June

Hi David & Michelle,
Welcome to the site, it was and still is, a great help to most of us.
Good luck for the future in your search.  Calis is certainly different to Marmaris and Icmeler and I like them also, especialy Icmeler.

Welcome David and Michelle to the forum.
My wife,Gael and I have bought a villa in Calis and are moving over in ten days time. Finishing work tomorrow!! Hope we can be some help to you. I have searched the forum and there is loads of info for you to digest,we have also compiled our own info regarding moving etc.
Face to face meetings at the  bus stop bar every weds is probably the best way to go.Hope to meet up in October.
Regards
Cyril

Hello Spannerman & Michele
 Welcome & Good luck with your house search. We have bought a place on Telmessos in Calis & are very happy with it. we bought in June and the price was very resonable.
We hope to be going back in October & moving there sometime in the near future
depending on what happens with our 14 year old daughter....plan is to get her married off when she leaves school!
