Hello

[dsrobinson24]

Hi my name is Sharon.  Myself and my hubbie Dave are looking to buy something in or around Calis.  This forum is excellant and I have found out a lot about the area.  I am thinking about coming out to look around soon, however I am not getting many replies from the various agents I have contacted over the weekend.  Did anyone else have this problem?  Also, if I do come out, it will have to be on my own as Dave is busy with work and cannot get anymore time off work.  Do you think its a good idea for a woman to come out on her own?  Am I likely to be ripped off, if I am on my own?  
We live in Newcastle so if there are any other geordies in the forum please say hello.
Many Thanks

Hi Sharon
Welcome to the Forum.
Give them a chance, I'm sure you'll hear something soon.
Can you not get a friend to come over with you?
I'm sure you'd be ok on your own though, as far as I know quite a few ladies have been over on their own and everything's been fine
Good luck
Anne

Hi Sharon

I have known several ladies come over on their own and never had a single problem, so don't worry about that.

Are you likely to be ripped off if you come on your own? Depends on whether you would have been ripped off if you came with someone else anyway! Rip offs are very rare, they do make big news but the business is generally very straight and professional if you follow the basic rules.

Hi Sharon

As Anne has said you will be quite safe on your own many ladies come on there own and purchase without a problem.
Hope all goes well and you find what you are looking for.

Hello Sharon.
I too know a lot of ladies who came out to Turkey alone and they loved the place so much they didn't go back.
So you would be fine
Choose a good agent though. I'm sure there are recommendations on the site

Thanks for the welcome.  I am still waiting to hear from the various agents.  I know I am being impatient but I would have thought one of them would have sent a mail.  Anyway, due to a holiday in October, I am a bit pushed for time.  Can someone let me know when the last incoming flight into Dalaman is? I would prefer to wait until after our holiday in October but if need be I can take a few days off at the end of September.  
Thanks

Hi again.
My son has just read the replies to my mail and we both want to know Scunner, what are the basic rules?  Steven (my son, who is 20) has very generously volunteered to come out to Turkey with me.  I'll have to pay of course!! So there might be two of us off to Calis soon!!
