Cameron’s Core Principles

The mental model behind every property breakdown, case study, and “what we’d avoid” article you’ll find on this page.

Principle 01

With ~95% of sales by locals, your future buyer is almost certainly Turkish.

Principle 02

Pick average projects in prime locations over shiny ones on the fringe.

Principle 03

Target “affordable luxury” that young Turkish families can reach.

We focus on true market pricing and real rental demand.

Often just inflated prices paid back as a 'guarantee.' We avoid these.

The fringes can face a glass ceiling on prices. We privilege centrality.

A poor match for Turkish homebuyer preferences.
