In the world of real estate investment, one of the most important indicators investors use to evaluate the profitability of a project or property is the Return on Investment (ROI). This metric not only shows how profitable a property is but also serves as a powerful tool for comparing different markets, projects, and investment strategies.

The ROI is a financial indicator that reveals how much net profit you have earned from your investment. It is expressed as a percentage, helping investors assess the efficiency and profitability of their investments.
 

The basic formula for calculating ROI is:
ROI = (Annual Rental Income ÷ Total Property Purchase Price) × 100

Example:
If you purchase a property for USD 100,000 and receive USD 10,000 in annual rent, your ROI would be 10%.

ROI is one of the key tools for analyzing the risk–return ratio of a real estate project. Professional investors always assess this metric before purchasing to ensure that their investment remains profitable in the long term.
 

Benefits of analyzing ROI include:

• Ability to compare different projects
• Market analysis and identification of the best country or region for investment
• Data-driven and informed decision-making
• Assessing the impact of financial leverage on returns

Global real estate markets vary significantly in terms of investment returns.

For example:

Turkey: 8–10%

UAE: 8–10%, depending on the area (slightly higher or lower in some luxury zones)
 

To calculate ROI (Return on Investment) more accurately, the following factors should be considered:

1. Geographic location of the property

2. Type and usage of the property

3. Current rental market conditions

4. Additional costs such as taxes, insurance, and maintenance

5. Potential for property value appreciation
 

ROI is calculated based on current market conditions; however, fluctuations in exchange rates, regulations, and economic factors can affect it. Therefore, economic, legal, and currency analyses are also essential. The Return on Investment (ROI) is a key metric for every real estate investor, and a thorough evaluation of it supports data-driven and informed decision-making. Before entering any property market, investors should carefully assess ROI along with economic and legal risks.

 

Summary:

“Purchased” passports issued without an address, property, history, or genuine ties are now not only losing their global standing but also exposing their holders to new risks — from visa cancellations to frozen accounts and immigration restrictions.

In contrast, citizenships like Turkey, granted under legal frameworks through transparent and genuine investments, have not only maintained their international credibility but have also become one of the most reliable pathways for obtaining a second passport and international access for investors.
