GÜNEŞ & GÜNEŞ LAW FIRM
Legal advice and litigation support for real estate sales, property investments and construction projects.

As GÜNEŞ & GÜNEŞ LAW FIRM, based in Antalya and serving clients throughout Türkiye, we provide legal support to property owners, buyers and sellers, landowners, investors, contractors and project developers.
We handle property sales together with ownership, zoning, contracts, financing connections and delivery conditions. In construction projects, we manage the legal process from drafting the contract to implementation and progress payment tracking, and from delivery to the resolution of disputes.
We determine the scope of services based on the property’s characteristics, the parties’ capacity, the stage of the project and the documents.
When buying and selling residential, land or commercial property, we review land registry records; mortgages, attachments and other restrictions; representation authority; and the property’s current use. We coordinate the legal aspects of the contract, payment, security and title transfer.
Land and project investments, partnership structures, and the transfer of a property or of a project company are assessed from a legal standpoint. Transaction risks, the obligations of the parties and a contract structure suited to the stage of the investment are determined.
We prepare or review turnkey contracts, land-share construction contracts (kat karşılığı / arsa payı karşılığı) and revenue-sharing agreements. We organize the scope of work, technical annexes, deadlines, security, progress payments and the conditions for ending the contract.
The legal dimension of zoning plans, development and use conditions, construction permits, and occupancy permit (yapı kullanma izni, iskân) procedures is reviewed. Applications and litigation options against administrative acts and sanctions are assessed.
Contracts, decisions and notification procedures between landowners and contractors are assessed under the law. Sharing arrangements, contractual commitments on rent support, and eviction and delivery conditions are addressed according to the specific project.
In claims of late delivery, incomplete work and defective construction, we review the contract, minutes and technical reports. We assess the documentation of deficiencies, notices, and the legal remedies that may be sought based on the facts.
We prepare residential and commercial lease agreements and assess disputes concerning the determination of rent, rent adjustment, eviction, security and the return of the property. We determine the legal route based on the parties’ positions and the terms of the contract.
We pursue actions for cancellation and registration of title (tapu iptal ve tescil), dissolution of co-ownership (partition), pre-emption (önalım) and prevention of encroachment (elatmanın önlenmesi). Claims for compensation for unjust occupation (ecrimisil) and for the protection of ownership are assessed based on the file.
Management plans, common areas, dues and expense sharing, board decisions and management disputes are reviewed. We provide legal advice on the management of residential, site and commercial buildings.

Acceptance of the matter is communicated separately, within the framework of the required contracts, authorizations, documents and obligations set out in the engagement terms.
The agreed transactions are carried out. You are kept informed of important developments, matters requiring a decision, and next steps.
First, the ownership information in the land registry, records such as mortgages and attachments, and the authority of the seller or their representative are reviewed. The zoning and permit status is examined as well. Existing tenants, the way the property is used and any contracts are also part of the review. The list of documents varies depending on whether the property is residential, land or commercial.
The division of independent units, project and technical annexes, term, transfer schedule, security, progress payments, amendments, and delivery and termination conditions are reviewed together. It is also examined whether the contract provisions are consistent with the land registry transactions and with actual implementation.
The contract and its annexes, payment records, correspondence, delivery minutes, dated photographs and any technical reports can be prepared. Notices, time limits and the need to preserve evidence are assessed based on the specific facts.
Some transactions can be carried out with appropriate authorization. Which stages require in-person participation or additional documents is determined separately. The scope of the power of attorney, and the translation or certification requirements that depend on the country where it was issued, are assessed before the transaction.
Acquiring property and citizenship or residence applications are separate legal processes. Where a purchase is made for these purposes, the current application requirements and the suitability of the property are reviewed separately; the purchase transaction alone does not mean that an application will be accepted.
Depending on the needs of the matter, legal work can be coordinated with reviews by engineers, architects, valuation experts or financial advisors. Technical suitability and valuation assessments fall within the responsibilities of the respective professionals.
Ongoing legal advisory can be provided for contracts, project correspondence, company transactions, personnel and commercial relationships. The scope of regular legal advisory, and of separate litigation and special transactions, is clearly set out in the contract.
