Görkem Öğüt, CEO and Co-Founder of Endeksa, made the following assessments of the report:

“Housing sales in the first 6 months of 2025 compared to the same period last year 26.9% Increasing the rate 691,893 took place as. Compared to 2024 and 2025, it seems that the most important difference is in sales with mortgages.

Mortgage housing sales in the first 6 months of last year of total sales 9.4% when creating, this year 14.9% created.

When we look at the change in housing sales prices and rents, it seems that every month since February 2024 there has been a real decline on an annual basis. However, this decline has lost pace compared to the same period last year. For example, the nominal increase in housing prices on an annual basis in June 2024 43.5% while the real decline %17.3 It was on the level. In June 2025, the annual nominal increase to 26.9%; real rate of decline to 6.2% regressed.

On the rents front, there is a similar picture: nominal increase in June 2024 %51.7% while the real decline %12.6 It was on the level. In June 2025, the annual nominal increase to 32.6% while retracting, the real decline is only 1.9% It happened as. The fact that the real fall in rental prices remained more limited has shortened the payback period for housing investment and made housing attractive again for investors looking to generate rental income.

In this direction, the importance of data-driven tools such as Endeksa for accurate timing and healthy analysis is even more important. It is possible for investors and landlords to find answers to any questions on the subject from Indeksa and our AI-based real estate consultant Atlas.”
