Ok so we have an offer accepted on an apartment, obviously want to do it the correct way. We opened a bank account when over in Fethiye so we could do the rest of the buying over in UK. Should we get a solicitor or do we just use the estate agent do deal with all the details.

I would say that it depends on The estate agent.. We had no trouble at all with ours but a lot have an absolute nightmare.  I would use a solicitor recommended on here.. It might cost you more but it could cost you everything in the long run.

I would probably agree - a good estate agent can do it all for you easily (unlike the UK) but you do need a good (honest) estate agent.

There's no reason why you couldn't

We sold a villa on the monday and bought a new one on the friday only with an estate agent, we didnt see any need for a solicitor when we had a good estate agent who did all the work for us, both sales were done and dusted in one day each with not one problem !!  ;D
