Maslak Apartments for Rent
Long-term rentals in Istanbul’s business district — the same buildings we sell in, with contracts, deposits and running costs explained before you sign.
Renting in Maslak, in practice
Maslak sits in the Sarıyer district on the European side, along Büyükdere Avenue. It is where most international companies keep their Istanbul offices, which is why the rental market here moves faster than in the rest of the city: good units are taken within days, and landlords expect tenants who can decide quickly. Thinking of buying instead? See Maslak apartments for sale and rent, with prices by complex.
The M2 metro runs the length of the district (İTÜ–Ayazağa and Atatürk Oto Sanayi stations in Maslak), so Levent, Şişli and Taksim are a short ride away. Belgrad Forest and the Ayazağa parks are on the other side of the avenue, which is the main reason families choose Maslak over Levent.
Most stock is inside gated residences with security, parking, gym and pool. That comfort comes with a monthly service charge (aidat) paid on top of the rent — always ask for the current figure before signing.
What a rental costs you
- Deposit: one to two months’ rent. Turkey has no key-money or “rehn” system.
- Service charge (aidat): paid monthly by the tenant in most residences.
- Agency fee: one month’s rent + VAT, paid once.
- Utilities: electricity, water and gas are transferred to your name.
Contracts and renewals
- Contracts are written in Turkish lira, normally for 12 months.
- Annual increases are capped by the 12-month average consumer price index.
- Furnished and unfurnished are both common; furnished units rent at a premium.
- For a residence permit you need a notarised contract — we arrange it.

Can a foreigner rent an apartment in Turkey?
Yes. You need a passport and a Turkish tax number, which takes about ten minutes to obtain. We handle the notarised contract and the utility transfers with you.
How long does it take from viewing to keys?
Two to four days is normal in Maslak if your documents are ready. The bottleneck is usually the notary appointment, not the landlord.
Is the service charge really extra?
Yes, in almost every residence. It covers security, cleaning, pool and gym. We tell you the exact monthly figure for each building before you decide.
Do you have furnished apartments?
Yes, a large part of the Maslak stock is furnished because of corporate tenants. Ask us for the current furnished units.
