Hey guys,

my plan is to leave to Istanbul this Dec with two American friends, we have a plan to establish a small business in Istanbul. but we need some necessary information please. Does anybody know how much it costs to rent a big flat in Kadikoy Merkez, Katal, or Bostanci? The flat needed is supposed to be with 6 rooms at least.
Can anybody help in other things overthere? I need friends from Istanbul please.

hey Sami,
dont know if there is a falt with 6 rooms available out there, you should try to look for a doublex appartments then.
how long do you plan to stay in istanbul and how old are you all?

ps.i am lithuanian living in istanbul.

Thank you Cornelia, I think you are right about getting a doublex flat for like this number of rooms, I consider this choice. In answering your questions I am 33 years old guy from Syria, and my friends are in 40s, for more information about me you can visit www.arapcakursu.com

I am willing to stay for one week only for this time but I will return again very soon and for longer time if things go well with us.

Thank you Sui it was really great help from you, I have just written a message to your brother to be sent by email because I can't communicate in Turkish, but if things are ok and if he can speak English then I will call him, however, I sent you a copy of my message to your brother, please check your private messages on this website.

yes my brother can speak english.. he is advanced... and let me send you his private email.. by private msg.

sami i think its very hard to find a house with 6 rooms even if you find one it cost you too much...i dont know how much you can pay..........it also depends on where you want to hire....because kadikoy and the other names you gave is not small places...i think you should find someone who live in istanbul and before going there he or she must find a house and inform you about this...if you find a turkish friend who can help you ,you can hire the house cheaper....i dont know i live in kocaeli which is 45 minutes away from istanbul....but i dont know if i can help you or not....anyway good luck

Hi Ramayan, it is so kind of you to say that, but I have to do my best anyway, I lived in Istanbul for few months about four years ago. and I know the similiarity between people in Turkey in Syria, they are very nice but it is not so safe to be known as foreigner, so I will look for a friend in Turkey to help me discussing everything before I go there, and I would appreciate any help.

sami i want to help you..but i dont have time these days...i think you understand what i mean...if you own try to hire it can cost too much....i think i can help you...but you must think about what kind of house you think?????where ???and when????and please how can i help you much????
because i never tried to do that kind of things(never helped a foreigner)i dont think i may have problem at finding a house but i think we may have problem at communication with you....
good luck have nice night

It is so kind of you to say that Ramayan, Thank you very mcuh, I will inform you about the details that I need as soon as I make my mind up about some stuff.
