According to Article 705 of the Turkish Civil Code No. 4721, registration in the land registry is required for the acquisition of immovable property. Registration is a land registry process required for the transfer of immovable property. Except for legal exceptions, immovable property cannot be acquired unless it is registered. However, this rule is not an absolute rule, some of the exceptions to this rule are regulated in the Turkish Civil Code. In these exceptional cases listed in the law, immovable property is acquired before registration, but assignment cannot be made without registration. The important point in cases where immovable ownership is acquired before registration is that the registration in the land registry is not constitutive, but declarative. In declaratory registration, the right in rem has already been acquired; the duty of the registration is not to ensure the acquisition of the right in rem, but to inform the new owner of the right in rem. In the second paragraph of Article 705 of the TCC, it is stated which situations will enable the acquisition of immovable property before registration. Accordingly, in cases of inheritance, court decision, forceful execution, occupation, expropriation and other cases stipulated by law, ownership is acquired before registration. However, in these cases, the owner’s ability to perform disposition transactions depends on the registration of the ownership in the land registry.
In this case, since it is understood that the deed registration of the immovable property subject to the lawsuit in the name of the non-suit debtor … was canceled and registered in the name of the plaintiff … on the grounds that the sale transaction made in the deed cancellation and registration case was a collusive and malicious transaction, and that the registration decision given was a declarative transaction, not a constitutive transaction in accordance with the legal regulations mentioned above, and that the deed registration in the name of the plaintiff did not go through the plaintiff, it is understood that on the immovable property subject to the lawsuit…. The attachments placed on the immovable property subject to the lawsuit in the follow-up files numbered 2011/5303 of the Execution Office and numbered 2010/28168 of the …Execution Office should be decided to be removed. It was not deemed correct for the court to decide to reject the request on grounds that are not appropriate, and therefore, the decision should be reversed.
Conclusion It was decided with majority of votes on 27.06.2016 that the appealed decision should be reversed in favor of the plaintiffs for the reasons explained above, the defendant’s objections to the appeal should not be examined at this stage and the prepaid fees of the plaintiffs should be returned upon request.
