And Emel Onur noted that the most real estate buyers in the US were the Chinese with $11.5 billion. Talking about the high number of real estate investments of the Turkish people in Washington DC, Turan Tombul pointed out that the rise of investments in the capital was linked to the direct flights of Turkish Airlines. Murat Ağırnaslı, on the other hand, stated that a business project in New York needed to receive the approval of the office of the chief prosecutor and added: “The money from the customer is kept in the escrow account and won’t be transferred to the contractor before the title deed is delivered. This system removes all concerns.”
