About Us
ALV Homes
Privacy. Precision. Performance.
A holiday home by the sea, a permanent move abroad or an international property investment starts with a personal plan. Buying abroad also means understanding an unfamiliar market and deciding whom to trust. The right choice should fit your life today and the future you are building.
ALV Homes advises private buyers, investors and sellers in Türkiye, Thailand and Bali, Indonesia. We begin with your priorities, intended use, budget and timing, including residency or citizenship goals where relevant. That wider picture guides the properties we recommend and the way we position a property for sale.
Our first-hand property investment experience shapes how we assess opportunities: the capital involved, the risks to understand and the details behind the presentation. We combine local market knowledge and established networks with a German-influenced approach to reliability, preparation and clear communication.
Buyers receive guidance from the first conversation through acquisition, supported by our own lawyer and local partners. Where residency or citizenship is part of your plan, legal review helps establish what is possible in your individual case. Manuela and Martin describe support through the citizenship process with a German-speaking lawyer.
Our YouTube channel has more than 175,000 subscribers. Together with our website, it gives sellers an international platform for their properties and helps buyers explore selected opportunities before deciding what to view.
We review the property details with you, explain the points that need checking and coordinate the agreed next steps.

How We Work
Selected Properties
Selected properties, including discreet off-market opportunities when available, assessed for their location, practical suitability and potential to support your long-term plans.
Market Understanding
Local knowledge helps you compare pricing, understand market conditions and assess development potential in the context of your goals.
Strong Network
We coordinate the required documents and transaction steps with established developers, legal experts and local partners. We also coordinate any necessary clarification with the relevant authorities. We make clear who is responsible for each step and whom you can contact.
Price Negotiation
We lead and support price negotiations, working towards fair market terms and clear agreements that reflect your priorities.
Property Potential
We consider location quality, the available information on building condition and the scope for targeted improvements when assessing a property’s potential.
Our focus is a sound basis for your decision, with opportunities and trade-offs made clear.
OUR APPROACH
Good advice starts with understanding what you want to achieve and which priorities matter most to you.
We organise your priorities, confirm our understanding with you and use that brief to guide the search or sale.
We assess each option against those priorities, explain the relevant trade-offs and identify the information still needed for a sound decision.
You set the pace and make the final decision, with guidance through the practical steps ahead.
BUYER & SELLER REPRESENTATION
We represent buyers and sellers through the real estate process, with practical support tailored to each client’s situation.
For buyers, this includes property selection, evaluation, price negotiation, contract coordination and guidance through legal transfer. Michael and Christine describe a search matched to their requirements and access to suitable properties.
For sellers, we provide pricing guidance, positioning and structured marketing to relevant international buyers. Shamaila and Mohammad describe selling remotely at their requested asking price.
These individual experiences show different ways our work can support a client’s plans. We stay involved in the decisions and coordination that move the process forward.
