Burj Al Babas Most Bizzare Real Estate Project

Posted by Sasi Kumar on December 5, 2022

Some of the real estate projects aren’t complete as thought. There are many such incomplete projects around the world.

It’s Burj Al Babas in Turkey, a collection of more than 700 unique “villas” that are all decorated with the same Gothic adornments. The Mudurnu, Turkey-based Burj Al Babas has frequently been in the news for being a posh hangout for the wealthy and affluent. However, the area is now nothing more than a “ghost town.”

Even after being marketed for years as a premium development, the bizarre town, which consists of several castles in the Disneyland style, is now deserted. Up to 732 $200 million three-story villas were planned for the location. However, the town has a desolate, almost haunting appearance today.

The Sarot Group designed the buildings, which feature balconies, large windows, and Gothic turrets.

The project’s designers hoped it would attract well-off Gulf families and tourists who would be eager to purchase the properties. The Sarot Group also planned to construct a cinema, a shopping mall, and sports facilities in the town along with elegant homes. After the homes went on sale in 2014 for between $370,000 (£275,574) and $530,000 (£394,741), everything appeared to be in order. According to reports, the real estate endeavor was off to an excellent start with half of the assets selling ahead of schedule. But by 2018, sales had drastically decreased, and before the project could be finished, the developers were eventually declared bankrupt. Up to 530 partially constructed homes are still on the property today, cared for by no one. Mehmet Emin Yerdelen, the chairman of Sarot Group, attributed the project’s failure to those who refused to make payments for the homes they had purchased.

Right now, the Sarot Group is still experiencing a serious crisis. The town has become popular with tourists who are drawn to abandoned villages even though the houses are still unfinished. Now, the last few deserted castles sprawl out in remembrance of a neighborhood that never was and probably never will be. The mansions’ interiors were never finished, and as time has gone on, the outside of the buildings also started to deteriorate.

    We bought an apartment in Bangalore recently and Gangadhar made the entire process easy and seamless. Our experience with Gangadhar was outstanding and he took care of all the requirements for the property transfer end to end in a compressed timeframe. Gangadhar was patient, provided good advice and listened to all our requirements. He went above and beyond to help with a variety of other matters as well. I would highly recommend Gangadhar and his team.

    Mr. Balaji is our family acquaintance and is known to us for several years, he is also involved in philanthropic work, It is our good fortune that we entrusted the sale of our ancestral property to Mr. Balaji and his company. Mr. Balaji and his team of trusted lieutenants ensured the process right from selecting the buyer till completion of sale was completed without any hiccups and took care of all the paper work. Balaji and his team were willing to go the extra mile to ensure the sale was complete as per agreement. We would like to commend Balaji and team and hope we will have the opportunity to engage him again in the future. Wishing Balaji and team all success personally and professionally.

    We were introduced to Mr. Balaji by our sister sometime back for helping us sell our property. More than a broker he has been a good friend and guided us well through out the entire process. He has always been more than ready to help us. Our heartfelt thanks to him for a smooth journey in selling our property. I will definitely and strongly recommend his name to all my relatives and friends. Wishing him and his company success in all his future endeavours.
