Why We Exist
Most clients meet Istanbul through the wrong door.
Public listings. Pressured sales floors. Brokers who close the file the moment the deed is signed. A family worth millions, handled by a sales script.
Bosphorus Capital was built for the second kind of client. The one who would rather see three honest options than thirty. The one who reads contracts before they sign them. The one who expects the office that handled the purchase to still answer the phone two years later.

Room ICitizenship
I · Citizenship
Turkish citizenship, from four hundred thousand.
A G20 passport. Spouse and children under eighteen included. No requirement to live in Turkey. The qualifying real estate is held for three years, then released back to you in full.
Selection, SPK valuation, DAB conversion, Tapu, and the file before the General Directorate of Population. All of it handled by one office, in one quiet thread of correspondence.
The Citizenship Path
Four steps. One office. One thread of correspondence.
From the first call to a Turkish passport in hand, roughly four to six months. Every step is handled here, in writing, by the partner who took your first brief.

Room IIResidences in Istanbul
Residences, viewed strictly by appointment.
II · Residences in Istanbul
A house, chosen the way we choose our own.
Bosphorus-front apartments. Private homes in Nişantaşı and Bebek. Considered yield in Maslak and Başakşehir. Nothing listed publicly. Only what we would purchase ourselves, after legal, structural, and market review.
Room IIIVillas in Bodrum
A second house, where the city ends.
III · Villas in Bodrum
And, when the city is enough, the Aegean.
Whitewashed villas in Yalıkavak, Türkbükü, and Göltürkbükü. Stone terraces above the bay, private moorings, olive groves older than the deed. A second house for the long summer.
Bodrum residences also qualify for the citizenship programme, with the same one-office handling, and the same three-year retention.
Room IVThe City, Arranged
An afternoon on the Bosphorus, set aside for you.
IV · The City, Arranged
Istanbul, quietly arranged.
From the moment your aircraft lands. Discreet arrival, a private driver, a suite already prepared. A boat on the strait when you ask for it. A table that opens for you.
Tell us the date. The city will be ready before you are.
A car that already knows the route.
A Life in Istanbul
Mornings on the strait. Evenings in the old city.
Tea on the terrace before the first ferry. A long lunch in Bebek. The Grand Bazaar after closing, with the right introduction. Friday prayer at Süleymaniye, then dinner above the Golden Horn. Istanbul rewards the people who slow down inside it.
Bebek
Sunday lunch on the water.
Nişantaşı
Tailors, jewellers, quiet apartments.
Sariyer
Fish, cold rakı, no rush.
Beyoğlu
Concerts, galleries, late conversation.
The Founder
Founded by Wissem Hassouna.
Every brief that reaches this office is read by its founder. Wissem Hassouna built Bosphorus Capital on a simple conviction: international buyers deserve representation that sits on their side of the table — patient, documented, and still reachable years after the deed is signed.
