Jordanian and Turkish Apartments: Looking for Apartments for Sale in Amman, Trabzon

Jordanian and Turkish Apartments: Searching for Apartments for Sale in Trabzon, Amman
In recent years, as economic and cultural ties between Turkey and Jordan have deepened, an interesting two-way trend has been observed in the real estate markets. Jordanian investors, in particular, have begun searching for apartments for sale in Trabzon, a tranquil, natural beauty in Turkey's northeastern region. Meanwhile, Turkish citizens are showing interest in apartments for permanent residence or investment in Amman, the Jordanian capital. This dynamic is fueled not only by cost advantages but also by factors such as its strategic location, security, and quality of life.   Amman: New Property Owners from Turkey in Jordan
As one of the most stable and secure cities in the Middle East, Amman is an attractive destination for investors, particularly from Europe and Asia. People from Turkey prefer to buy apartments in Amman for the following reasons: High standard of living and low crime rates Geographical proximity to Turkey (1.5 hours by plane) Turkish-speaking society and cultural proximity Tax advantages: No income tax in Jordan, low property taxes Second passport/residence opportunity: Jordan issues long-term residence permits (similar to the Golden Visa) Therefore, modern apartments and small villas, especially in prestigious districts like Beit Ras, Abdoun, and Shmeisani, are in high demand among retirees, digital nomads, and businesspeople from Turkey. Some Turkish companies are developing projects in Amman that offer "Turkish-style" interior design and Turkish-speaking management services.  Example: A family living in Trabzon moved to Amman for their children's university education; In 2024, she purchased a 3-bedroom apartment in Şmeisani and is earning an annual rental income of 4.5%.   Trabzon: The New Winter Garden for Jordanian InvestorsTrabzon, by contrast, is attracting the attention of Jordanian investors with its natural beauty, historical heritage, and affordable real estate in the eastern Black Sea region. Apartment prices: 10–15% of Amman (100 m² apartment: between 70,000–120,000 TL)A quiet and safe life: An alternative refuge amidst political and economic uncertainty in JordanWinter tourism potential: Mountain villages with unparalleled views, but less competitive than UludağTourist infrastructure development: New tourist housing projects in Sürmene, Akçaabat, and Of regionsLocals with strong Turkish language skills: Cultural integration is easyJordanian investors are particularly looking for apartments with sea views, farmhouses with gardens, and winter holiday second homes. Some people buy apartments in Trabzon and use them with their families during the summer months, while renting them out during the winter months, making profitable investments.  Real case: An Amman-based product house owner bought an 85 m² sea view apartment in Akçaabat in 2023. With 6 months of personal use and 6 months of rent, they earn an annual income of 12,000 TL — 3 times the rent of an apartment that can be bought for the same money in Amman!    Future Vision: “Black Sea-Mediterranean Bridge” The Trabzon-Amman airline route is planned to be opened by 2025. Negotiations to establish a “Real Estate Joint Venture Fund” between the two countries are ongoing. The number of Jordanians in Turkey increased from 20,000 to 35,000 in 2023 — 40% of this number is related to real estate purchases. The number of Turks in Jordan is around 15,000, and 30% of them own apartments.  Conclusion: Trabzon and Amman are no longer just cities — they have become the meeting point of two cultures, a destination for a “second home”. “An apartment is not surrounded by walls, is defined by the moments people live. The clouds of Trabzon and the hills of Amman are today two windows of the same house.”This two-way movement is not only in the real estate market, but it is the rebuilding of ties between people—both in the economic and human sense.
