Villas are one of the required options that a number of foreign investors ask for in Turkey, especially Arab investors who wish to buy spacious homes with spacious rooms, especially since many communities in some Arab countries are used to live in homes with large areas, as they prefer to buy a villa instead of buying a large apartment with five rooms and two salons, in order to obtain higher privacy, and more special benefits and services, and some of them are interested in buying a villa because the number of their family members is greater than an apartment capacity, and some buy for the purpose of investment, so whether the purposes of purchase a villa, whether for housing, investment or summer, many investors who wishing to buy a villa in Turkey are wondering about buying a villa without specifying whether that villa is independent or within a residential complex, and they do not notice that there are many differences between independent villas and villas within a residential complex, even if in the same area.

In fact, although Turkey has built hundreds of residential and investment projects, which include hundreds of thousands of apartments that enjoying several purposes from residential or investment apartments, it has also not neglected the construction of complexes that include villas, whether these complexes are in coastal areas near the sea or rural areas, where the green spaces are on the outskirts of the cities, some of which enjoy sea views, and some have views of the green spaces, in order for the Turkish state to understand and study the needs of real estate investors, and its desire to satisfy all tastes and attract the largest possible number of investors, in this article we will explain the difference between the independent villa and the villa within the residential complex and the advantages and disadvantages of buying in both of them.

Definition of the villa:

It is a residential unit with a spacious garden and a private gate for its residents, surrounded by a fence on all sides. It is characterized by all residential services from a kitchen, reception room, living rooms, bedrooms and bathrooms. It usually consists of two or three floors above each other, and it has its own services such as a private garage, car parking and swimming pool, villas are the most luxurious, private and luxury real estate units, in addition to their large area, and they enjoy high privacy whether it is within a residential complex or independent.

General characteristics of the villa:

A special fence surrounding each villa separately, whether it is separate or within a complex.
A larger number of rooms, starting from 3 rooms and a hall and up to 12 rooms and two salons.
Enjoying a private garden attached to the villa, which may be front and may be front and rear.
Having private garage for the car inside a specific place designated for the car attached to the villa, and it may be a place for one care or more than one.
Multiple floors of the villa start from two floors (duplex) or three floors (triplex).
Including of a swimming pool in most of the villas, whether they are separate or within a residential complex, rarely you may find a villa that does not have a swimming pool.

The villa inside the residential complex:

It is a villa that is part of a residential project that includes a group of other villas, and is built on a larger land surrounded by a group of similar characteristics such as the exterior design and the quality of the interior finishes, and their participation in some social facilities such as the Turkish bath or the steam room or playgrounds such as tennis, basketball and football, The complex often includes several types of villas, such as a single villa, a penthouse villa, or a twin house villa, and the villa is often owned by the construction company that sells it to individuals.

Advantages of buying a villa within the residential complex

1- Security system monitored by cameras:

Villas within residential complexes enjoy a very high level of security and this is one of a common characteristic in all residential complexes in Turkey, where there is a security guard unit at the gate every of the residential complex, and it surveillance by cameras all time during the day, so there is no strangers can enter without permeation of the residents, as the guard should take his name and knowing which inhabitant they will go to? And he makes sure of the homeowner who will visit, which means that the possibility of thieves or strangers entering is zero.

2- Privacy

Privacy is one of the main positive advantages of living within a complex, giving the maximum level of privacy to the investor's life.

3- Calmness and distance from noise

The number of residents of the villa inside the complex is very limited, and thus guarantees you to live in a quiet environment that brings comfort and peace, in order to keep you away from noise pollution and hustle and bustle, which gives the residents an opportunity to relax.

The multiplicity of facilities and social services that give an additional type of luxury, comfort and fun, as the complexes include swimming pools, green spaces, and kids’ areas, in addition to football and basketball courts, or sometimes tennis courts, which gives villa residents more luxury and fun and spend their leisure time without the need to go out from the complex.

5- The luxury of the exterior design and the quality of the interior finishes

The villas within the complexes have unique and innovative architectural designs in addition to using the finest building materials and materials for interior finishing.

6- Having green areas to raise the level of quality of life

The wide and open green spaces are one of the most important features of the residential complexes, not only the green spaces, but also the artificial ponds and water bodies, which helps in raising the quality of life for the residents of the villas and thus raising the level of well-being of the villa residents.

7- Maintenance guarantee from the construction company

The construction companies guarantee the villa for the owners, as they grant free maintenance for the villa for a period of two years from the receipt of the villa, especially since most companies deliver the villa, which is new and newly built, and the construction age is zero, meaning that no one has previously lived in it. So, they give free maintenance guarantee for the villas’ owners.

8- Stunning Views

Most of the construction companies choose the location of the residential project very carefully, especially if the complex includes villas or the complex is for villas only, Therefore, most residential complexes have distinctive views, especially sea views, such as those in Istanbul in Beylikdüzü or Buyukcekmece districts.

Disadvantages of buying a villa within a complex:

ِA- At the outskirts of the city: Residential compounds are often far from the city center, and are in areas on the outskirts of the city.

B- High prices: The prices of villas inside the residential complexes are much more expensive compared to their counterparts outside the residential complex, because the villa is newly built, and includes many services and facilities that guarantee the residents of the complex a greater level of luxury and luxury.

C- Readiness of housing: Most of the villas within residential complexes may be under construction and not ready for housing, and therefore the investor has to wait for a while until they get ready to move.

2- The separate villa:

It is a stand-alone villa and the land built on it owned by one of the individuals and not by a construction company and it has its own garden and independent services such as swimming pool and its car parking.

Advantages of buying a detached villa:

1- Its price is more competitive:

Independent villas are less expensive than their counterparts in a residential complex, due to several reasons, which is the readiness of the villa for immediate housing, as it is often resale, secondly, the age of the villa is often used, and therefore its price is lower than its new counterparts in the same area, thirdly, few social facilities in these villas.

2- The ability to re-decorate the interior designs of the villa:

The owner of the independent villa can re-design the interior decoration of the independent villa, while for the villa inside the complex, the owner must obtain the approval of the complex management if he wants to modify the interior decoration.

Disadvantages of buying an independent villa:

1- Lack of green spaces:

Most of the residential complexes enjoy the presence of green spaces and natural views, and the management of the complex ensures the preservation of these green spaces surrounding the villa, especially those spaces separating the villas from each other, and it is not allowed to convert these green spaces into residential buildings, while the independent villa is not guaranteed that the surrounding spaces do not transform to residential buildings or streets, which exposes them to noise and reduces the privacy of their owners.

2- The need for permanent renovation:

Since the independent villas are resale, and the villa may be more than ten or twenty years old, the buyer is forced to make internal and external renovations, which forces him to pay more money to renovate the villa and its facilities, whether renewing the interior decoration or renewing the villa from the outside.

Note: There are some independent villas that are more like palaces in terms of space, services, luxury and level of luxury. There are villas that have a swimming pool, Turkish bath, jacuzzi, sauna, and backyard basketball, as well as having a front entrance for guests and the car, and a back entrance for the people of the house.
