Georgia’s residential real estate market maintained moderate growth in the first quarter of 2026. According to the National Statistics Service of Georgia, the housing price index rose by 1.8% quarter-over-quarter and by 3% year-over-year. Since 2020, the cost of residential real estate in the country has increased by 62.3%.
Apartments saw the most significant price increases. In the first quarter, apartment prices rose by 2% quarter-over-quarter and 3.3% year-over-year, while private homes increased by 1.1% and 1.8%, respectively. This indicates more stable demand specifically for the apartment segment, particularly in the capital.
The highest prices continue to be recorded in the prestigious districts of Tbilisi. Among apartments, Mtatsminda leads with an average price of about $2,542 per square meter, followed by Vake at about $2,222, and Krtsanisi at about $1,662 per square meter. In the single-family home segment, the most expensive districts are Mtatsminda at around $1,803 per square meter, Vake at $1,679, and Didube at $1,582 per square meter.
For buyers of new construction, the stage of completion remains an important factor. According to the publication, average asking prices in the first quarter were approximately $1,639 per square meter for “green frame” apartments, $1,343 per square meter for “white frame” apartments, and $1,239 per square meter for “black frame” apartments. However, the source itself notes that these are asking prices on popular online platforms, not final transaction prices.
Overall, the new data confirms that the Georgian housing market continues to grow, albeit without sharp spikes. The main driver is the capital, and above all, high-quality urban housing in Tbilisi’s expensive neighborhoods, where prices have already noticeably exceeded $2,200 per square meter.
