RESIDENCY BY REAL ESTATE · GEORGIA

Residency in Georgia Through Real Estate

Buy property worth US$150,000+ for a temporary residence permit — or US$350,000+ for permanent residency. And because Tbilisi Home is certified to carry out appraisals, you’ll know a property meets the threshold before you buy it.

Two Paths to Residency

TEMPORARY

US$150,000+ — Temporary Residence

Own real estate officially appraised at US$150,000 or more (one property or several combined) and qualify for a 1-year residence permit, renewable for as long as you own the property. Your spouse and children apply on the same ownership.

PERMANENT

US$350,000+ — Permanent Residence

Own property appraised at US$350,000 or more and apply for permanent residency — no annual renewal cycle. The long-term option for investors and families making Georgia their base. Family included here too.

Appraised by a Certified Team. Known in Advance.

For residency purposes, what matters isn’t the price on your contract — it’s the value in the certified appraisal. That report is the heart of every application.

Tbilisi Home is certified to carry out property appraisals, and that gives you something most buyers don’t have: certainty before you commit. If a property you like sits near the threshold, we assess it up front — so you only proceed when the value is genuinely there. The appraisal itself is an objective, market-based report, held to the same standards banks and the Public Service Hall rely on. What we remove isn’t the standard — it’s the guesswork and the risk of an unpleasant surprise after you’ve already bought.

How It Works

01

Choose Your Path

Temporary (US$150k+) or permanent (US$350k+). We shortlist properties that fit both your goals and the threshold — one property or several combined.

02

Certified Appraisal

Our certified team appraises the property and confirms it meets your permit’s threshold — assessed before you commit, documented officially after purchase.

03

Submit the Application

At the Public Service Hall. We help prepare the documents, translations, and the application itself.

04

Receive Your Permit

A decision typically arrives within 30 days. Temporary permits renew annually while you own; permanent residency is exactly that — permanent.

The Fine Print, Honestly

A temporary permit is tied to ownership — sell the property and the basis for your residency goes with it. Residency is not citizenship. You can rent the property out while holding the permit — many owners cover their costs this way. And requirements can change: the figures on this page are current as of 2026, and we confirm the exact rules with you before you commit to anything.
