Rental Income in Tbilisi & Batumi

A ready apartment for short- or long-term rental — stable passive income in hard currency.

The rental strategy means buying a ready apartment that starts generating income immediately. Unlike flipping, the goal here is not a quick resale but a stable cash flow for years ahead, plus appreciation of the asset itself.

Georgia offers two working scenarios. Short-term rental in tourist locations (central Tbilisi, the Batumi seafront) yields more but requires management and depends on the season. Long-term rental has a lower yield but predictable income and minimal hassle.

We select a property for the chosen scenario, calculate the real return accounting for occupancy, fees and taxes, and can take over rental management — the investor does not need to be in Georgia.

How it works

1. Choose scenario and location

We define the goal — maximum income (short-term) or stability (long-term) — and select a district with the right demand.

2. Real-yield calculation

We calculate the actual, not the ‘ideal’ yield: occupancy, vacancy, utilities, management fee, tax. Figures before purchase.

3. Fit-out and furnishing

Renovation and furnishing tailored to the target tenant. Proper preparation raises both the rental rate and occupancy.

4. Management and income

We handle listing, check-ins, maintenance and reporting. The investor receives net income and regular statements.

FAQ

Short-term or long-term — what's better?

Short-term rental usually delivers a higher annual yield in tourist locations but depends on the season and requires management. Long-term is lower-yield but stable and hands-off. The choice depends on the property and your goals — we model both before purchase.

Do I have to manage the rental myself?

No. We can take over the full operational cycle: listings, guest check-ins, cleaning, maintenance and reporting. You receive net income to your account.

What is the rental income tax in Georgia?

For individuals, residential rental income in Georgia is taxed at a preferential rate. The exact terms depend on your status and rental type — we include tax in the yield calculation and recommend confirming details with a tax advisor.

Does the apartment itself also appreciate?

Usually yes: you earn rental income while the asset appreciates on Georgia's growing market. On exit you can sell the property above the purchase price.
