Description
According to a lawyer specialising in real estate law, disputes between homeowners and tenants have risen sharply in recent months in Turkey after annual inflation reached nearly 50 percent in January, the highest since April 2002. Rents have risen by 85 percent in Istanbul and by 69 percent at the national average, leading to some lease cancellations. One tenant says that they felt compelled to leave with their 2-year-old daughter after his landlord began sending him threats. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
