World D Maltepe Residential Complex in Istanbul’s Maltepe District – a Paradise for Fans of City Life

Discussions about what stage of completion of the property is the most profitable to start investing can go on forever. However, the fact that the World D Maltepe complex is one of the most advantageous offers on Istanbul’s real estate market is beyond doubt. The current construction completion status is 5%, and the popularity that the project enjoys among investors is the best proof needed.

You can ask why this is the case. Isn’t it safer and more profitable to invest in development projects that have already been commissioned? Isn’t investing in a future project that at the moment exists only on paper risky, and isn’t it better to avoid this risk altogether? If we were talking about any other project, all this might be true. But World D Maltepe is special.

The unquestionable business reputation of the developer practically eliminates the risks usually associated with the failure to commission a facility. Consequently, your investments are reliably protected, and there is no reason to worry about any possible force majeure circumstances. And that is not all. World D Maltepe is an extremely rare example of a project offered for investment that costs the owners significantly less than its real, objective market value.

And all that is only because of the uncompleted construction status. When World D Maltepe is commissioned, the market value of the apartments will skyrocket, and the choice of the available properties will be reduced quickly. This is why investing in World D Maltepe “here and now” is especially profitable.

Purchasing an apartment or a villa in Turkey also creates a set of other important opportunities connected with obtaining a residence permit and further participation in citizenship for investments in this country.

Main Features of the Residential Complex:

• Location in the city: Maltepe area in the Asian part of Istanbul;
• Property types: apartments;
• Distance to the airport: 21 km. At first it may seem that the noise from the airplanes in the World D Maltepe would be very loud due to its being located in this area, but this is not actually so. In Madrid, for example, there are some residential areas even closer to the airport – within 13 km. The same goes for Prague – 20 km, and London – 24 km. Therefore, 21 km is a sort of “a golden mean”. Your apartment will be far enough away to be guaranteed noise-free, but still close enough so you would have no problems with the transfer to your flight.
• Distance to the beach: 6 km. The warm waters of the sea are only a very short drive or a pleasant stroll away;
• Distance to the center of Istanbul: 17 km. One could say that World D Maltepe is on the outskirts, but we believe that in this particular case it is an advantage rather than a disadvantage. You can enjoy freedom from crowds of tourists, much lower prices in most stores (compared to the central shops that lie on the busy tourist paths they are almost indecent), and the mesmerizing unhurried and peaceful life of an Asian city. At the same time, the area offers the highest level of technical and infrastructural support – there are no compromises here!
• Status of the property: 5% ready, commissioning of World D Maltepe is scheduled for 2024;
• Apartment areas: from 68 m² to 230 m².

The horizontal architectural approach was not invented in the 21^st century. Experiments with this technique were carried out at the beginning of the 20th century, but then they did not become widespread. World D Maltepe is a modern take on an old idea. In practice, refusing to build high-risers in favor of horizontal architecture offers many advantages. In the first place, it allows the apartment owners to maintain psychological isolation of the building while having access to all the advantages of World D Maltepe’s location in a dense urban area.

However, the unusual architectural format of the residential complex is certainly not its only advantage. An extremely high concentration of points of interest and varied infrastructure within a short walking distance (in line with the architectural standards) allows you to eliminate all sorts of everyday problems, and at the same time you do not feel “squeezed” in a little cell of a human beehive. The combination of freedom (psychological in the first place) and all the necessary facilities for a comfortable life nearby is a unique feature of World D Maltepe.

We would like to highlight the project’s focus on simplicity and naturalness. Pleasant proportions, modern architectural solutions focusing on the maximum level of comfort, a great variety of materials, and the determination to meet all the residents’ needs – all this makes the World D Maltepe project a vibrant and convenient place to live. The residential complex offers such attractive living conditions that we can say with certainty: it will not find many real competitors not only in Istanbul, but also throughout Turkey.

• Round the clock security. Importantly, this is not just a formality, as it sometimes happens. The security is solid and effective.

Our Recommendations and Conclusions

World D Maltepe is the case where logic is powerless in choosing the right property. This residential complex captivates with its unequivocal focus on creating comfort, convenience and coziness for its residents, and the entry prices are surprisingly affordable. If you really want to, you can find more affordable apartments elsewhere, some with better technical equipment or advanced infrastructure, others located much closer to tourist sites, and so on. Sure, you can find many others.

However, World D Maltepe has some other charm. Something special that is hard to describe or share, but best to experience first-hand. It seems like home, cozy and close – you actually feel like you want to live here. Unless some unexpected emergency happens, in 2024 the residential complex World D Maltepe will be put into operation. And when it happens, the entry prices for the “tickets” into the world of Istanbul’s real estate in the Maltepe area will definitely be a lot higher. 

Therefore, if you are interested in buying housing in Istanbul at “ground zero” level from a developer, you should hurry to make a decision. There is still time to consider options, but not much. We would not say that such a chance happens once in a lifetime, but if all the apartments in World D Maltepe become someone else’s homes, you will have nobody else to blame but yourself.
