Istanbul
Istanbul has a very different feel to the South-West area of Turkey. Much more obviously "Eastern" and straddling two continents (you pass from Europe to Asia by crossing a bridge), it is a powerhouse of thriving activity, history, industry and development.
One of the fastest growing cities in the world, with an estimated need for 250,000 in the next five years, property prices there are booming with estimates for growth varying between 40% and 120%
Below are links that will give you some detail on what is happening in Istanbul and particularly with regard to property prices there:
