Attention those posting housing ads: A new era has begun in real estate!

Effective today, housing ads for sale or rent cannot be posted without authorization verification. Existing ads, once they expire, can only be reposted after undergoing the same authorization verification process.

During the process of posting an individual ad, it will be mandatory to enter the property number into the relevant field on the ad platform's page.

According to the report in Ekonomim, here are the frequently asked questions and answers regarding the Electronic Ad Verification System (EİDS):

WHAT IS EİDS?

EİDS is a verification system created by the Ministry of Trade as part of the identity and authorization verification obligations imposed on ad platforms, aimed at increasing the accuracy and reliability of real estate ads on electronic ad platforms.

WHO WILL BE ABLE TO POST ADS UNDER EİDS?

With EİDS, real estate ads on ad platforms can only be posted by the property owner, the property owner's first and second-degree blood relatives or spouse, and real estate businesses authorized by the property owner with an authorization certificate. First-degree blood relatives are considered the person's mother, father, and children, while second-degree relatives can be the person's siblings, grandparents, and grandchildren.

CAN MY FIRST AND SECOND-DEGREE BLOOD RELATIVES OR SPOUSE AUTHORIZE A REAL ESTATE BUSINESS ON MY BEHALF?

Your first and second-degree blood relatives or spouse can post ads for properties belonging to you, but these individuals cannot perform the real estate business authorization process on your behalf. A real estate business can only be authorized by the property owner.

WHEN WILL EİDS COME INTO EFFECT?

EİDS was launched on September 15, 2024. There was a transition period in EİDS between September 15, 2024, and December 31, 2024.

While it was possible to post ads without verification during this interval, the application was fully implemented as of January 1, 2025, in such a way that ads cannot be posted without authorization verification.

HOW WILL INDIVIDUAL ADS BE POSTED?

During the process of posting an individual ad, it will be mandatory to enter the property number into the relevant field on the ad platform's page. The system will automatically perform owner and kinship checks, and the ad entry will be completed by finishing the standard ad posting procedure.

HOW TO ACCESS THE PROPERTY NUMBER?

The property number can be accessed using the "Title Deed Information Inquiry" service available on e-Devlet. In this service, the property number information can be reached by clicking the "Property Information" button for the relevant property in the property list.

Additionally, the property number information is located on the new type of title deed documents.

HOW WILL CORPORATE ADS BE POSTED?

In the first step, the property owner will need to authorize the real estate business. For this, it will be necessary to log in to the "EİDS Real Estate Ad Authorization Transactions" service via e-Devlet.

On the page that opens, the "Authorization Transactions" button located in the top right corner will be clicked. At this stage, the properties owned by the person will be listed, and the property intended to be advertised will be selected.

On the page that opens, the authorization certificate number of the real estate business to be authorized will be entered into the "Authorization Certificate Number" section.

The authorization certificate number can be learned from the real estate business, or it can be learned by making an inquiry with the real estate business information at the link https://ttbs.gtb.gov.tr/Home/BelgeSorgula. Finally, the "Authorization Expiry Date" will be selected, and the transactions will be saved.

HOW WILL ADS BE POSTED FOR PROPERTIES WITHOUT A TITLE DEED?

Ads regarding properties without a title deed can be posted without being included in the system. When entering ads for properties without a title deed, it will be necessary to select the "I do not have a title deed" option on the ad platform. Housing projects for which floor easement has not yet been established, TOKİ and Emlak Konut projects, and shanty houses fall into the category of properties without a title deed.

NO NEED TO GO TO THE BANK FOR HOUSING LOANS

Housing loans will be able to be utilized in an electronic environment using remote communication tools without the need to go to a branch or provide a wet signature. The regulations on the subject prepared by the Ministry of Trade have been published in the Official Gazette and have entered into force.

With the regulations, changes were made to distance contracts regarding financial services, housing finance contracts, and consumer loan contracts. According to information obtained from the Ministry, the changes were aimed at compliance with the regulations that entered into force in October regarding the Law on the Protection of the Consumer.
