CASE STUDY: How Mehmet Yilmaz from Turkey Found His Perfect Dubai Investment with La Foret Real Estate
From Istanbul’s Bustling Streets to Dubai’s Bright Horizons — A Story of Courage, Vision, and Success
Meet Mehmet — A Turkish Entrepreneur Seeking Global Growth
Mehmet Yilmaz, a 39-year-old businessman from Istanbul, wasn’t new to risk.
Over the years, he had built a thriving export business across Turkey and Europe.
But by 2024, he knew it was time to think beyond regional growth.
He wanted a stable international investment, somewhere future-focused, business-friendly, and safe.
All signs pointed to one place: Dubai.
“Dubai isn’t just a city anymore. It’s a global hub. I knew if I wanted to build real wealth, I had to be part of it.”
— Mehmet Yilmaz
The Challenge: Dreaming Big, Navigating Bigger Questions
Even with his business success, Dubai real estate felt overwhelming at first.
- Where should he invest? Business Bay, Downtown, Creek Harbour?
- Off-plan or ready-to-move units?
- What about taxes, regulations, service charges?
- And how could he manage a property from Istanbul?
Like many first-time international investors, Mehmet worried about making costly mistakes.
He needed more than just flashy listings.
He needed solid, experienced guidance.
That’s when he found La Foret Real Estate.
The Turning Point: Finding a True Advisor, Not Just an Agent
What stood out about La Foret wasn’t just their experience — it was how they listened.
Instead of pushing properties, they spent time understanding Mehmet’s goals:
- Was he focused more on rental income or appreciation?
- Did he plan to hold for 5, 10, or more years?
- How hands-on or hands-off did he want to be?
