"The Shopping Center Boom in Turkey
01 April 2007
The beginning of 2007 has been marked by some notable entries into the Turkish market: foreign investment into Turkish shopping centers. According to an article in the TDN in February quoting a WSJ article, 'prime shopping centers offer yields of around 8 percent to 9 percent. Investors buying shopping centers before they are completed hope for yields of 10 percent to 11 percent.' I would venture to guess that ROI’s are very much in the teens when it comes to Turkey’s current environment, hence the future demand. (Corio’s Real Estate Investment Fund expects a 5-year return of 20%!)"
