			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As the market for apartments offered to mid-to-high income foreigners got more penetrated in the last few years, some property managers started to show interest in the student housing market in the past year.<img class="alignright size-full wp-image-24" title="russia" src="http://www.servicedapartmentsistanbul.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/russia.jpg" alt="russia" width="225" height="187" /></p>
<p>While students do not demand much from the landlords in terms of luxury or space, they are almost all looking for cheap, clean, safe housing options with broadband internet access at all times. CCD, a propery manager today announced two new properties they developed and designed specifically for foreign students studying in Istanbul. While most students come to Istanbul for the Erasmus program, there are many more coming for language courses, internships or specialized studies.</p>
<p>Two properties offered by CCD are basically designed with the same principles they uphold in their luxury developments. These are hygiene at all times, safety and making hi-tech equipments available 24/7 for the guests. The properties can be seen at <a href="http://www.roomsinistanbul.com" target="_self">Rooms in Istanbul </a>website which currently has preliminary photos from apartments.</p>
<p>These are good options for students or freelancers visiting Istanbul for short to medium term. Tarlabasi, the region where the properties are located, is developing fast and is very conveniently located with easy access to other parts of Istanbul and presents many restaurants, bars, cafes, theatres, libraries, bookstores within walkign distance, mostly in the Galata - tunel - Taksim areas.</p>
<p>Check out the 2 properties and 26 rooms if you are lookin for rooms for rent in Istanbul or flat sharing with other foreigners.</p>

<div id="attachment_19" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 135px"><img class="size-full wp-image-19" title="oypro-logo" src="http://www.servicedapartmentsistanbul.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/oyp-logo.jpg" alt="oypro logo" width="125" height="126" /><p class="wp-caption-text">oypro logo</p></div>
<p>conveniently located properties in the company&#8217;s portfolio is offered for sale to investors and the company is able to attach their property management services to the properties for investors who are only looking for income but not interested in running the properties themselves.</p>
<p>According to a company representative who made a presentation of the portfolio on March 26th in a Taksim hotel, some properties are priced so competitively that they are projected to bring in an annual return in the 8% to 10% range. These yields, coupled with excellent capital gain opportunities, provide excellent investment opportunities for interested investors.</p>
<p>There is also a lack of strong management brand that provides serviced apartment properties in Turkey. There is a great opportunity for an investor backed management company to create a brand that can serve both domestic and international travelers.  Foreigners, familiar with serviced apartment concept, already is looking for these types of properties while planning for their vacations to Turkey. Also, there is an increasing demand from domestic companies in Istanbul to secure these types of serviced apartments for their visitors and employees coming from other cities.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Although it is possible to find a wide range of furnished villas in the south part of Turkey, most of the serviced apartments in Istanbul consist of apartments. Istanbul is a big city with both the asian and the european side being home to a total of over 17 million people.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.istanbulturkeyapartments.com" target="_self">Istanbul Turkey Apartments</a> and <a href="http://www.holidayvillaturkey.org" target="_self">holiday villa Turkey</a> are two websites providing information specifically on villas or both apartments and villas. Websites specifically focusing on Istanbul serviced apartments usually have listings of furnished apartments. These types of sites usually belong to landlords or property managers who either own or rent these apartments to rent out again to visitors. These apartments usually are located in regular and centrally located buildings but do not really provide the necessary service to be classified as serviced apartments.</p>
<p>There are no extra services provided at these types of properties other than a superintendent that takes care of the daily operations. Nowadays, business travelers are demanding more from the properties they reside at.  They want all the daily reponsibilites to be taken care of while they can focus on their business arrangements. Both types of apartments, however, provide the additional personal space that cannot be felt at hotels.</p>
<p>Owners of <a href="http://www.apartmentsinmarmaris.net" target="_self">Apartments in Marmaris</a> website also mention the fact that these types of business travelers, even when they are on vacation, provide services like hi-tech communication in the holiday villas.  They want to stay connected online at all times.</p>
<p>We are now in the process of garnering a list of both furnished and serviced apartments in the city and will make it available soon. <a href="http://www.apartments.com.tr" target="_self">Turkey apartments for rent</a> is now an excellent source of information for visitors seeking all kinds of accomodation Turkey from student houses in Istanbul to holiday villas in any city in the south part of the country.</p>
