We are planning to build 3,000 residences with an exemplary urban approach in our 1,300,000 square meter reserve area right next to our City Hospital.

We will build the remaining 2,000 residences on the site. We will build our new residences, especially in areas with 17 destroyed buildings. I also want to answer a question that arouses curiosity among our citizens. Our citizens, who AFAD has determined as the owners of the collapsed and severely damaged buildings in Izmir, will receive the new residences to be built on the site or in the construction area of the reserve. The new residences to be built on the site will not exceed the land + 5 floors and will be in the form of 2 + 1. Those who want 3 + 1 will be able to buy residences in the reserve building area. For those who are eligible for AFAD, the cost of the new home will be calculated. It will reduce 40% -50% of costs. Our citizens will pay the amount in 18 years, without payment during the first 2 years. Payments will be interest free and will be reimbursed in equal installments. Again, according to the damage assessment studies, those who live in buildings with moderate damage and that present a risk will be able to own houses of the residences on the site or in the area of the reserve structure, according to the urban transformation practices, in close to these payment conditions.
