Investors prefer to buy property under Blue Flags

Blue Flags can be already seen on 383 beaches in Turkey, that is 59 more than a year before. By the number of Flags Turkey is now second only to Spain and Greece. France moved down from the third place to the fourth, according ee24.com citing antalyatoday.ru.

The Blue Flag is an international award by the Foundation for Environmental Education provided for top-of-the-range beaches all around the world. The Blue Flag guarantees a high quality of water and service, that's why such beaches attract tourists, and the real estate on such coasts attracts investors.

Clean water, security, high level of service and availability of information - all of this can be found on the beaches that got the Blue Flag. In Turkey, most of such beaches (namely 179) are located in Antalya, on the Mediterranean coast. In Istanbul there are only three of them.

Julian Walker, the head of a real estate agency Spot Blue, says that the real estate located not far from the beaches with Blue Flags, is in great demand, and the cost increases after beach gets this award. In addition, the Blue Flag award allows foreign buyers to learn about new places in Turkey where they can always buy a house after their own hearts.
