The cost of renting in the regions of Turkey was moving in different directions. In Antalya, from February to April 2013 there was a decline in prices, which was replaced, though, by a slight increase in the summer months, but led to a cumulative increase in rental cost by only 1.6 % in 8 months, which is the worst result among the four major cities of Turkey.
In Ankara, rental rates have been less volatile, showing an increase of 2.36% in eight months. In Izmir rates remained unchanged in March and April, but the growth in summer allowed to fix an overall increase in rental rates by 3.62%.
The most radical changes were in Istanbul. In February, it was noted a record rate reduction (-0.93%), and in July as record growth (1.72%). Not surprisingly, the city was the leader to increase the cost of rent, which rose by 4.7% in 8 months.
