This page covers what drives value at Taksim 360, what its tourism-residence label means for you, and how a letting or sale runs from abroad. Our office is in Bahçelievler, where we have worked as a licensed estate agent since 2018.

What drives value in this complex

Taksim 360 is one name on the portals but a mixed project: 558 residences, 122 offices, 135 shops and a hotel in nine buildings. The residences alone run from 46 to 370 m², so one figure for the whole complex would mislead. What separates one flat from another, in order:

  • Building and floor. A flat over Tarlabaşı Bulvarı and one over a shop street inside the project are different products at the same m². The floor then decides how much street noise reaches the flat and how much light comes in. It is the first thing we ask.
  • Studio or large flat. Studios and 1+1 flats sit at one end, residences of up to 370 m² at the other. The small ones suit one person or a couple; the largest go to households that want space in the centre. Small units let quickly and turn over quickly; large ones are the reverse.
  • The hotel and the offices cut both ways. A 110-room Canopy by Hilton, the brand's first hotel in Turkey, is now open inside the project, which also has its own office buildings. For one applicant that means a recognisable address and activity at the door; for another, comings and goings below the window. Which effect wins depends on where your flat sits, so we answer it unit by unit.
  • Furnished or not. Furnishing raises the asking rent but narrows the tenant pool, and here the answer changes with the size. A small flat a walk from İstiklal can suit someone who wants to move in with just a suitcase. A large one more often goes to a household that brings its own furniture.

The neighbouring complexes the portals show alongside Taksim 360 (Piyalepaşa İstanbul, Tersane İstanbul, Taxim Hacıüsrev, Benesta Beyoğlu, Elysium Soul Beyoğlu) are useful for orientation, but they are not like-for-like comparables. So we value from inside the complex and give you the figure in writing, with its comparison table, rather than publishing a public "complex price".

Service charge (aidat): we confirm the figure before the advert goes live

We do not publish a service-charge figure for Taksim 360 on this page. The charge is set by the management, changes at least once a year and differs by layout; copying an old figure off the internet is the sort of mistake every owner in the complex would catch at a glance. What we do instead: before the advert is written we get that month's figure for your layout from the management, put it in the advert, and quote the same number to every applicant who asks at a viewing.

This matters more than it sounds. After the rent, the service charge is the first thing an applicant asks about, and one that is missing from the advert starts a negotiation you did not need. In a Turkish tenancy the tenant normally pays it; the detail is in our guide on who pays the aidat. If you already know your complex's current figure, put it in the note with your valuation request and we will work from it.

What being a walk from Taksim Square is worth

Taksim 360 stands on Tarlabaşı Bulvarı, in the Şehit Muhtar neighbourhood of Beyoğlu. It was launched as Tarlabaşı 360, and some portal pages still show both names. It is the same project, built in the Tarlabaşı renewal area by GAP İnşaat (Çalık Holding) with Beyoğlu Municipality.

What shapes the tenant pool here is the walk. Taksim Square and İstiklal Avenue are about 300 metres away, Taksim metro station about 700 metres and Şişhane station about a kilometre. Being a walk from the centre widens the pool to people who want to live without a car. The office buildings inside the project add people who work a few steps from the door.

For an owner, this has two consequences. A tenant who chooses Taksim on foot compares your flat with others across Beyoğlu, not only inside the project. So the flat itself, its light, outlook and condition, weighs more than the amenity list. And with parking for 550 cars in the project, applicants who drive will ask whether a space comes with your flat; the advert should answer that.

Two flats of the same layout here are often separated by their condition. We ask whether the kitchen and bathrooms are still as delivered, which appliances and furniture stay, and how the central heating bill is split.

Thinking of selling?

A sale at Taksim 360 differs from a letting in two ways, and each can work for or against you:

  • You compete with more than other owners. Some residences may still be on sale from the developer, listed as ready to move into. A buyer can then weigh your flat against new stock as well as other owners' adverts. So the price has to come from what has sold in your building at a similar size, not from asking prices.
  • Expect the tourism-residence question. The developer's site lists the residences as tourism residences, and a buyer who has read it will ask what that means for your flat. We look at your unit's own papers before the listing goes live, so the answer is ready before the question can stall a sale.

Tick "sell it" on the valuation request and the appraisal comes back with sale comparables rather than rental ones, or with both if you are undecided. Worth reading first: selling your Istanbul property from abroad and why the declared price on the deed matters.

How it works if you live abroad

In a branded complex like Taksim 360 a large share of owners do not live in Istanbul. The process is built to run remotely from the start, and you do not need to travel:

  • Valuation. A written market appraisal (not an SPK report) within one business day, from the layout, gross and net area, floor, aspect, kitchen and bathroom condition, air-conditioning and furnishing. If you are undecided between letting and selling we give you both figures; we have also written on what a yield actually tells you.
  • Keys. If the keys are with a relative in Istanbul, the site management or a property-management firm, we collect them against your signed key release letter and issue a handover record.
  • Listing authorisation. The e-Devlet (EİDS) authorisation takes two minutes and can be granted from abroad.
  • If your title deed does not show in e-Devlet. Bought as a foreigner and later became a Turkish citizen? The deed usually stays under your old identity, and the listing authorisation cannot be given. We run the identity match and then the removal of the three-year no-sale annotation for you. We have completed both in a single day at the land registry.
  • Photography and advertising. Professional photography, a boosted listing on our sahibinden.com store and applicant pre-screening; we run the viewings and send you a note after each one.
  • Lease and collection. Rent is paid through a bank. For signature there are three routes: a power of attorney at your nearest Turkish consulate, a wet-ink copy by courier, or the e-Devlet rental contract. On a sale the deed transfer runs on a power of attorney; see selling from abroad.

Finding a tenant costs you nothing: the letting fee is paid by the tenant. On a sale you pay our fee only when the sale completes, and we do not ask for exclusivity. If you want us to run the flat after the letting, property management starts at 5% of the rent collected: rent, repairs, the compulsory DASK earthquake insurance and the property-tax calendar in one place.

Frequently Asked

Questions about Taksim 360

What do apartments at Taksim 360 rent or sell for?

We do not publish a public 'complex price'. Taksim 360 is a mixed project of nine buildings, and two flats of the same size can differ sharply on building, floor and outlook. A single figure would mislead. Send us your building, floor, layout and gross area. Within one business day we reply with a written market appraisal (not an SPK report) and its comparison table. It is yours alone and is never published.

The developer calls these tourism residences. Can I let mine short-term?

That depends on your unit's own licence, not on the project's label. The developer says the residences are 'classified as tourism residences', which describes the project as a whole. It does not show whether your own flat holds a licence for short-term letting; that has to be confirmed for the unit itself. Nor does it mean the hotel runs the flats: the developer's residences page mentions no hotel management or rental pool. We handle long-term lets only.

How much is the aidat (the building's monthly service charge) at Taksim 360?

We do not publish a figure. The management sets it, it changes at least once a year and it differs by layout. Before your advert is written we get that month's figure for your layout and put it in the advert. In a Turkish tenancy the tenant normally pays it.

Should I furnish my Taksim 360 flat before letting it?

Talk to us first. Whether furnishing pays depends mostly on the size, as the section above explains. If you do furnish, furnish for a long-term tenant rather than a hotel guest: storage, a working kitchen and a place to work matter more than décor. If the flat is already furnished, we record what stays with it in the lease.

I live abroad — can you let or sell my apartment for me?

Yes, without a trip to Istanbul. We collect the keys from a relative or the building management on your signed authorisation, with a handover record. The listing authorisation takes two minutes on e-Devlet. For the lease, choose a consular power of attorney, a wet-ink copy by courier or the e-Devlet rental contract. On a sale, the deed transfer runs on a power of attorney. On a letting the tenant pays our fee; on a sale you pay only when it completes. We do not ask for exclusivity.
