Pendik apartments for sale, from the marina to the airport
A local agency for the most populous district on Istanbul’s Anatolian side. We check the deed, film the flat for you if you are abroad, and explain which corner of Pendik fits your commute.

Three ways to live in Pendik
Pendik runs from the Marmara shore up to the airport, a much bigger district than most buyers expect. The trains follow the coast, the D-100 highway crosses the middle, and the M4 metro climbs north to Kurtköy. Pick the band that matches your day.
-
By the water
The marina, the seafront walk and Marmaray within reach. The flats that face the sea set the top prices here.
-
Around the station
The old centre around Pendik station, where Marmaray stops and high-speed trains leave for Ankara and Konya. The M4 has a separate Pendik stop of its own.

Flats on our books
Each listing gives the gross size and the price per square metre, so a small flat by the marina can be weighed fairly against a bigger one near Kurtköy.
Our first Pendik listings are being prepared
We only publish a flat once we have been inside, photographed it and checked its deed. Tell us what you need now and you will hear about suitable homes before they appear here.
What we can do for you in Pendik
Sell a flat
A price grounded in comparable flats, proper photographs, and a bilingual listing that buyers abroad can follow.
Let or rent
Tenants found and vetted for owners overseas, and flats for people moving here for work near the airport or the shipyards.
Advice first
Ask about areas, fees or paperwork without signing up to anything. If Pendik is the wrong fit, we will say so.
If you are buying from outside Türkiye
The purchase follows the same five stages for almost everyone. We sit beside you at each one, in person or on a call.
Brief us and see the shortlist
Budget, rooms, shore or Kurtköy, sea or garden. We send flats that fit and walk you round them on a video call or in person.
Get your tax number
The vergi numarası is issued against your passport at a tax office, often within the day, and lets you open the bank account the payment goes through.
Order the valuation
A licensed appraisal firm prices the flat. For foreign buyers the Land Registry will not complete without this report.
Insure and transfer
Once the DASK policy is issued, you and the seller sign at the tapu office, with a sworn interpreter at your side if needed.
Settle in, or apply for residence
We hand over keys and utilities. Your deed can back a residence permit application; citizenship needs $400,000 of property kept for three years.
The people who answer your messages
Choose someone by language and by what you are after. Nobody suggests a flat they have not visited.

Pendik, briefly answered
Where is Pendik, and is it part of Istanbul?
Yes. Pendik is one of Istanbul’s districts, on the Anatolian side of the Sea of Marmara, with Kartal to the west and Tuzla to the east. It is the most populous district on that side of the city.
How far is Pendik from Sabiha Gökçen Airport?
The airport is inside the district, beyond Kurtköy. Since October 2022 the M4 metro runs from Pendik up to the terminal, and the ride from Tavşantepe was announced at about ten minutes.
Is a Pendik apartment for sale open to foreign buyers?
Nationals of most countries may own a flat in Istanbul outright. Before the deed changes hands at the Land Registry you will need a Turkish tax number, a licensed valuation of the flat and a DASK earthquake policy. We arrange each of these with you.
Will buying here give me Turkish citizenship?
Only if the property you hold is worth at least $400,000 and you keep it for three years, with that commitment noted on the deed. A smaller purchase does not qualify on its own, though owning a home can support a residence permit application. No one can guarantee either decision.
Do you only show finished flats?
We work with finished flats that already have their title deed and with homes still being built. For off-plan units we explain the builder’s schedule and what the contract says about delays before you sign anything.
Describe the home you want
How much you want to spend, how many bedrooms, whether you need to be near the station or the airport, and your timing. A real person replies within one working day.
