For long-term rentals in Istanbul, local real estate agencies are the main option. For the Aegean coast (Izmir, Bodrum area), short and mid-term apartment rentals also exist through Turkish listing platforms.

When searching for an apartment in Kadıköy, focus on its southern, more modern section — the Suadiye area along Bağdat Caddesi. This is where newer residential buildings and apartments are concentrated, as opposed to the older, run-down quarters further north.

For long-term apartment rentals in Istanbul, working with a local real estate agency is the most practical approach — they handle negotiations and paperwork. Independent search via Turkish listing sites is possible but can be challenging without Turkish language skills.

Finding accommodation on the Princes' Islands (Adalar) near Istanbul requires looking at agencies or communities that specialize in this area — the rental market there is smaller and more seasonal than mainland Istanbul.
