Before they did not look at each other’s faces, the students are now kings.
The government, which has disrupted the functioning of the market and the pricing mechanism with its misguided economic policies, has also turned the relationship between tenants and landlords upside down. Salim Taşcı, honorary president of the Association of Real Estate Consultants of Turkey, said that despite the rapid increase in inflation, the limitation of a 25 percent increase in rent made students kings in the eyes of landlords.
IMPRESSIVE RESULT OF THE SURVEY
Sharing the results of the survey they conducted with landlords, Taşcı stated that students ranked first in landlords’ tenant preference order, senior bureaucrats ranked second, and TV announcers and journalists ranked third. place.
Assessing the latest developments in landlord-tenant relations in SÖZCÜ, Taşcı said that the rapid rise in inflation and restrictions on rent increases completely changed tenant preferences.
THOSE ADS ARE ALREADY UP
Taşcı stated that advertisements such as ‘No rent to singles, students, only women’ are completely removed from rental housing and replaced with ‘Rent to students’, Taşcı said: “Students have become the king of the rents. Whoever sees the student hands over her house directly. Even if two or three students stay together it is not a problem. There are also landlords who are willing to make a deposit in amounts that according to the law are three months. Taşcı explained the reasons for the students’ preference as follows:
THEY ARE NOT VICTIFIED BY 25 PERCENT
“The education period of the students is from 2 to 4 years. Almost half of the student tenants usually leave the house at the end of the year. The owner can rent his house to new tenants in new conditions. Therefore, they do not fall victim to the 25 percent increase limit, which is well below the rate of inflation. Almost all students pay their rent regularly. Students don’t experience the landlord-tenant dispute.”
OFFICIALS OVERLOOKED
Taşcı said that civil servants who were appreciated by the owners in the past almost fell out of favor. Noting that officials conduct long-term rentals, Taşcı said, “Long-term rentals favor tenants during the period of high inflation, while making landlords succumb to inflation. Therefore, the owners think that they are saved from the loss of inflation thanks to the students who make short-term rentals.
NEIGHBOR HOME PURCHASE PERIOD ENDED
Taşcı also shared the results of the survey they conducted with 1,118 people.
Taşcı stated that people who buy new houses according to the survey no longer take neighborly relationship into account, saying, “Those who buy houses don’t feel the need to ask: ‘Who is my neighbor, who lives in my apartment?’ It is understood that social media is killing the neighborhood.”People who can’t look up from social media platforms don’t get a chance to meet their next-door neighbors,” he said, noting that priority it is not the neighbor but the livelihood is also included in the survey, Taşcı also stated that those who buy houses look at elements such as ceramics, paint, wallpaper, but do not care about criteria such as earthquake resistance and study of the terrain.

1- Student
2- High bureaucrat
