My name is Heather and I am partner
owner of Motif Homes together with my husband Ali-Haydar.
I've lived in Side for more than 12 years and have sons of
7 and 8 years, both born here and now studying at the local
college, as well as 5 dogs and a lovely mother-in-law. I am
a true ambassador of Turkey and despite having lived here
for this amount of time never take the wealth of history and
beauty at our finger tips for granted. I enjoy the festivals
at the amphitheatres and the beaches during the summer, the
skiing only an hour and a half away in the winter as well
as the ever expanding superb shopping facilities and never
ending Turkish hospitality.
For those of you who haven't yet met us
I would like to introduce our company as a family as undoubtably
that is the way we regard each other. We are also all dedicated
professionals who take our work seriously and have pride in
our work, our service and trying to keep up European standards
against all odds....to ensure that our customers have a stress-
and trouble-free time. |
We understand that to buy a property in a foreign
country is one of the biggest steps that anyone will make in a lifetime
and we treat each and every customer as individuals and in a personal
way so that they have as little stress as possible once their home
is up and running they are our firm friends.
Please come and meet our team and you will see
for yourselves what I mean.

Hi, I'm Karen
and I am Property Sales Consultant at Motif Homes. I'm married
with a 4 year old son and have lived in Side for 7 years.
I love living in Turkey, have never regretted my decision
to move over here and honestly can't imagine ever living anywhere
else.
The job that I'm doing here at Motif Homes
is perfect for me....my background is in sales and customer
service in the UK and its nice to work for a proffessional company here in Turkey, also here I've previously done repping
work and this job now gives me the opportunity to use all
of that experience but at the same time I'm meeting some lovely
people who end up being friends....what more could I ask for!!
We're a really close team here at Motif and as well as being
colleagues, Heather and I have been close personal
friends for a number of years. Anyway, I look forward to meeting
you when you come out to Side.

Hello, my name is Adnan
and I work at Motif Homes as property Maintenance manager.
Many of our customers have already met me and now can't live
without me, I'm not sure why because I am not good looking
and don't have lots of money.
I am from Istanbul but have lived in Side
for many years. I have worked with Ali and Heather also more
than 7 years. He is the best boss and I can't be more happy
in a different job with more money. I have the best job in
the world.
I look after everything for all of our customers
before and after they have bought a house here in Turkey.
I help with everything from getting Turkish Telephone card,
house Insurance, opening a bank account and setting up standing
orders with the bank, furnishing the house and then any problems
you have when you want to live in your home. When you want
to return to Turkey I can help arrange your transfers, car
hire, hotel and the cleaning of your home.
You can call me at any time and don't lose
my number-you will need it! To contact me directly you can
e mail me on; adnan@motifhomes.com. I am waiting to help everyone

Let me introduce myself. My name is Mete
and I have started to work in Motif Homes in November. I am
from Kütahya which is a famous city in Turkey for its
porcelain.
I was customer representative in the export
department of Kütahya Porselen company which is also
important manufacturing company in Turkey. For my work meant
I visited Germany many times and also Dubai for fairs and
business meetings. My job was very successful, I had a lot
of responsibility and have worked nearby Europeans for many
years so I understand that they want good organization, quick
reply and good standards.
I have now come to Side looking for new
opportunity and was recommended to come to MOTIF HOMES.
Now, I am training in this job and working
with Adnan to keep your satisfaction in property management.
I am enjoying the job and I hope I will be to everyone as
helpful and useful as Adnan.

This
is what our clients have to say about us....
..the service
that we got from Motif was better than we ever expected. They gave
us a good choice of property to choose from and ran us around to
look at all of them..
Mike & Barbara
..Motif have
a guy called Adnan...he takes you through the process, furniture,
curtains, crockery and everything else that will make up a complete
home..
Mike & Barbara
..The only
thing that we didn't expect was that all the staff there feel like
old friends, we spent a few evenings with them and throroughly enjoyed
them..
Mike & Barbara
..Thanks for
everything you did for us - you went well beyond the call of duty...
We all had a great time in Turkey and you were the icing on the
cake!
Mike & Barbara
..We would
like to take this opportunity to thank you all so much for all your
help and support in moving us into our new home. We would not have
managed without you...Your help and advice has been invaluable..
Sue
..When you
are about to buy a house in Turkey, I think you should consider
various aspects when you choose a real estate agency to do business
with ie competance and trust. According to my experience in doing
business with this firm, you can rely on their long experience in
helping people to find a house or flat in the Side region...All
of you were so nice and helpful to me..
Gunnar
..I would like
to thank you all at Motif Homes for all your help and advice in
the purchase of our villa in Turkey. The villa is brilliant and
the renovation work has been carried out to an extremely high standard.
It surpassed my expectations..
Colin & Carol
..Like most
people dealing with property matters in a foreign country at first
we were a little bit concerned about the way business is transacted
in Turkey. It is not quite the same as in the UK, but our fears
were unfounded..
Colin & Carol
..Please give
our regards to Adnan, what a nice guy and nothing is too much trouble,
we love him to bits..
Michael & Joan
..I would like
to express our thanks for the excellent service Motif Homes has
provided throughout the purchase of our new home in Turkey. You
made the whole process from, our rather hesitant enquiries about
buying the house, through to the furnishing of our home, a pleasant
and enjoyable experience.The viewings, which comprised an excellent
selection within our price range, were conducted in a friendly Professional
manner with no uncomfortable pressure inflicted. Each step of the
buying process, which was surprisingly simple and uncomplicated,
you carefully explained and you kept us fully involved and informed
throughout...We are delighted with our new home and feel welcome
and at home in Turkey. We feel that we have made 2 new friends that
we can turn to for advice and help with complete confidence, as
and when we need it. We can, with total confidence, recommend the
Professional service of Motif Homes to anyone considering the purchase
of a property in Turkey..
Teresa
..Thank you
very much for the time you spent showing us around, we enjoyed having
a little insight as to what is on offer in Turkey and the way you
conduct your business in what can be an aggressive market is exemplory..
Huw
..We were obviously
very nervous of all the potential pitfalls of a foreign legal system...with
only a slight command of the language but it just didn't work out
like that. In England, they take your money, give you your keys
and disappear to count the commission - but Motif Homes don't work
that way. From the moment we arrived we had help. Everything from
opening a local bank account, visiting furniture stores, buying
cookers, etc becomes relatively easy when you know there are always
people who will advise, assist and otherwise guide you through a
maze of possible pitfalls...You were like a family to us and we
enjoyed every minute of it..
Mike & Barbara
To anyone who
reads the above and think it reads like an advert - so it should,
because if you are thinking of a home in Turkey both of us would
say go ahead and buy with Motif Home...you'll get what you want
with a minimum of problems and a lot of fun..
Mike & Barbara
..part of the
pleasure will be to go back and see our friends at Motif Homes.
Mike & Barbara
..I bought
a a home from Motif Homes in April '04, I was shown around different
properties in the Side area within a couple of hours of talking
to them. After two days, I had put a deposit down on a two bedroomed
house with shared swimming pool and everything was sorted out...from
the solicitor, to helping my receive my money at the bank. The TAPU
(title deeds) came through within 7 weeks; whilst this was in the
process I received E Mails telling me what progress was being made.
When all was done, I came to Turkey and picked the keys up...all
in all I think that they did more than they should do, but I appreciated
all their help and their professionalism in making my move to Turkey
easier. So thank you to Motif Homes and if you are reading this
and are thinking of buying I really recommend that you use Motif
Homes. Then you will have the same happy and uncomplicated time
that I had.
Joe
..I have been
coming to Side for the past seven years...The friendly nature of
the people and the low cost of living were heavy influences in my
decision to purchase a property in Side...I made contact with Motif
Homes with the fact that the Agency has acreditation from the British
Consulate..
Trevor
..Motif homes
gave every help and advise throughout - nothing was too much trouble
from escorting to properties to final buying of furniture and other
recommendations...The service was friendly, but unobtrusive, with
impartial and honest advise. Nothing was too much trouble from the
first meeting and I have maintained contact long after final purchase...Should
you be considering property purchase then you are in safe, caring
hands with Motif Homes. Go for it!
Trevor
