Trabzon property prices by district: what pushes the price up and what brings it down

In short

In our active Trabzon listings in October 2026, the median asking price per square metre for apartments is around $700, with large differences between areas and properties. The main things that raise the price: an open sea view, proximity to central Ortahisar, the airport and amenities, a newer building and complex facilities. What lowers it: high elevation far from main roads, older buildings, and a view threatened by construction in front. You will find live figures for each area on the area pages, which update automatically.

“What’s the price per square metre in Trabzon?” It sounds like a simple question, but the honest answer is: it depends on exactly where, and on what you are buying. This guide explains how prices take shape in Trabzon and gives you a starting point from our actual data, with the reminder that figures change and the live pages are the reference.

Starting point: our data

In our active Trabzon listings in October 2026, the median asking price per square metre for apartments is around $700, and the price range runs from small plots of land at tens of thousands to luxury properties above a million dollars. These are asking prices, not final sale prices, and you will find automatically updated figures on the Trabzon page.

The six factors that set the price

1. The view

An open sea view is the biggest factor in Trabzon. But always ask: could something be built in front of it? See the sea-view homes guide.

2. Proximity to the centre and amenities

Ortahisar, the city centre, and the nearby hillside neighbourhoods around it are usually priced higher than the outskirts, thanks to their proximity to the university, hospitals and shops.

3. The airport and the eastern coast

Yomra, east of the centre near the airport, has seen many new residential projects, and its prices reflect the newer buildings and proximity to amenities. See the Yomra guide.

4. Elevation and road access

Trabzon is a city of hills. An apartment high on a hill may give you a superb view, but if the road up is very steep or far from public transport, its price and demand may be lower.

5. Building age and facilities

Modern complexes with a pool, security and parking cost more than older buildings, but they carry higher maintenance fees (aidat). See the maintenance fees guide.

6. Title deed status

An apartment with a kat mülkiyeti (full condominium ownership) tapu and an iskan (occupancy permit) is worth more than a similar one without an iskan. See the iskan guide.

Areas at a glance

Ortahisar: the centre and its hillside neighbourhoods such as Boztepe, Pelitli and Yalıncak. Constant demand and higher prices. See the Ortahisar guide and the Pelitli, Boztepe and Yalıncak guide.
Yomra: modern, close to the airport, new projects.
Akçaabat: west of the centre, coastal with the feel of a town in its own right, and a wide choice. See the Akçaabat guide.
The eastern coast (Arsin and Araklı): usually lower prices, nature and quiet.
The highlands and Uzungöl: country houses and land, with special rules. See the guide to buying in Uzungöl and the highlands.
