Imperium No1 Residence Prices and Details 2026
Talatpaşa, Kağıthane, Istanbul
Imperium No1 Residence has no public sale price as of October 2026; the developer has sold every apartment, so prices on the resale market are given on request. As a reference, asking prices in Talatpaşa average about 79,500 (seventy-nine thousand five hundred) TL per square metre, or around $1,600 (one thousand six hundred dollars). The building stands in the Talatpaşa neighbourhood of Kağıthane, close to the E-5 highway and the Metrobus line. It was developed by Imperium Gayrimenkul ve İnşaat A.Ş., a company set up in 2015 by a team from the Mesa group; it was completed in the last quarter of 2021 and has about 77 (seventy-seven) homes plus a few commercial units.

The building was completed in the last quarter of 2021, and according to a May 2024 report in Para Dergi all of its apartments have been sold. Sources give the number of homes as either 77 or 78.

What amenities and technical features does Imperium No1 Residence have?
Imperium No1 Residence is not a large gated complex but a boutique residential building on the E-5, designed for city living. Covered parking, a lift and a security system are mentioned across sources. One property portal also lists an indoor pool, a gym and a steam room, but because that page combines No1 and No2 information, whether these facilities are in this building should be checked on site.

How much are apartments for sale in Imperium No1 Residence?
Imperium No1 Residence has no verifiable current sale price as of 27 October 2026; the developer has completed sales, so flats only change hands on the resale market and prices are given on request. One property portal shows an undated 170 m² 3+1 marked as sold at $206,000 (two hundred six thousand dollars); because this record is old and may be mixed up with No2, it should not be used as a current value. According to emlakjet data, asking prices in Talatpaşa average about 79,500 (seventy-nine thousand five hundred) TL per square metre, or around $1,600 (one thousand six hundred dollars); newer buildings on the E-5 with parking can be priced above that average.

How does buying in Imperium No1 Residence work?
As the project is completed, sales are resales: a contract is signed with a deposit and the balance is paid at the land registry together with the title transfer. During this process, the title deed, mortgage and lien check, review of the sale contract and the transfer are handled by Att. Egemen Yasin Şahalioğlu. Buyers who cannot travel to Turkey can complete the title transfer by power of attorney.
How do foreigners buy property in Imperium No1 Residence?
A foreign buyer first obtains a Turkish tax number and opens a Turkish bank account; then the title deed and encumbrance check, valuation report and contract are completed and the title is transferred. The land registry also confirms that the property can be sold to a foreigner. Every step is followed by Att. Egemen Yasin Şahalioğlu, who works on property purchases by foreigners.
What needs to be done after the title transfer?
After the transfer, the electricity, water and gas subscriptions are opened in the new owner's name, the owner is registered with building management and a property tax return is filed with the municipality. If a citizenship application will be made, the payment documents and the title deed annotation are added to the file at this stage.
How much are apartments for rent in Imperium No1 Residence?
We could not find a readable current long-term rental listing for Imperium No1 Residence; a 1+1 rental listing title for the project appears on emlakjet, but its content could not be accessed. In other residences in the same neighbourhood in October 2026, furnished 1+1 flats are listed at 42,500 – 48,500 TL a month, or roughly $857 (eight hundred fifty-seven dollars) to $978 (nine hundred seventy-eight dollars), and 2+1 flats at 45,000 – 62,500 TL, or $907 (nine hundred seven dollars) to $1,260 (one thousand two hundred sixty dollars). Part of the flats in the building are run by NewInn as short-stay serviced apartments.

What is the rental yield in Imperium No1 Residence?
The rental yield for Imperium No1 Residence cannot be calculated at the moment, because there are no current sale and rental listings for the same unit type. Once a sale offer is available, gross yield can be worked out as annual rent divided by the sale price for the same type of flat; net yield is lower after service charges, taxes and empty periods.
Can units in Imperium No1 Residence be rented short term?
Under the rules in force since 2024, short-term rental requires a permit from the Ministry of Culture and Tourism and the unanimous consent of the other owners in a condominium building. In projects with many units this consent is hard to obtain in practice, so investment returns should be calculated on long-term rent.
What are the service charges and buying costs at Imperium No1 Residence?
Service charges at Imperium No1 Residence are set by building management according to the apartment's size and the compound's services. We obtain the current service charge for the apartment you are considering in writing from management and share it before purchase. The main buying costs on top of the price are:
By law, buyer and seller pay 2% each; the parties may agree otherwise.
A fixed fee charged for the title deed transaction.
Compulsory earthquake insurance taken out before the transfer.
Licensed valuation; compulsory for purchases by foreigners.
Present at the land registry for buyers who do not speak Turkish.
By Att. Egemen Yasin Şahalioğlu, from contract to title deed.
Fee rates may change with legislation; you can request the exact breakdown in writing before purchase. For new-build purchases, whether VAT is included in the price is also checked.
Can you get Turkish citizenship by buying in Imperium No1 Residence?
A home or office worth at least $400,000 (four hundred thousand dollars) qualifies for Turkish citizenship by investment; the threshold can also be reached with more than one property.
Without a current price it is not possible to say for certain which flat in Imperium No1 Residence meets the $400,000 threshold on its own. A rough calculation at the area average of about $1,600 per square metre suggests a flat of around 250 m² would be needed; the 1+1, 2+1 and 3+1 units in the project appear to be smaller than that. Buying several flats together is possible for citizenship, but the deciding figure is the value in the licensed valuation report.
- The value is determined by a licensed valuation report.
- A no-sale annotation of at least 3 (three) years is placed on the title deed.
- Payment is made in foreign currency and documented through a Turkish bank.
- The application file is prepared and followed by Att. Egemen Yasin Şahalioğlu.
Legislation may change; current requirements are confirmed with the lawyer before applying.

Is Imperium No1 Residence a good investment?
Imperium No1 Residence is worth considering for investors looking for a small, easy-to-let flat in a central location close to public transport; but with no current public price, any investment calculation can only be made once a concrete offer is in hand.

- Strong tenant demand from the courthouse, hospitals and business centres
- Developer founded by a former Mesa team, project fully sold
