The index covers only new buildings in Tbilisi and is calculated in lari. Over the year, new flats became 5.6% more expensive and detached houses 7.0%. Over the quarter, flat prices rose by 1.2% and house prices by 2.7%.
Consumer prices in Georgia grew at the same pace, with annual inflation at 5.6% in September. Adjusted for inflation, new flats in the capital have barely become more expensive over the year.

Condition of the flat
New flats in Georgia are sold in three conditions, and Geostat tracks the price of each. Black frame means bare walls, white frame means a flat ready for finishing, and green frame means a flat with a finished renovation.
| Condition | Q3 2025, ₾ per m² | Q3 2026, ₾ per m² |
|---|---|---|
| Green frame | 4,288 | 4,493 |
| White frame | 3,474 | 3,752 |
| Black frame | 3,314 | 3,287 |
Over the year, white frame flats rose by about 8%, while black frame flats became slightly cheaper. Many of these flats are sold before the building is finished. When buying off-plan in Georgia, check the developer before you pay a deposit.
What it means for buyers
If you plan to buy a new flat in Tbilisi, a budget calculated a year ago now falls about 6% short. Detached houses rose faster than flats, and buying a house or land in Georgia as a foreigner comes with its own rules.
The index covers only new buildings in Tbilisi, so it does not show prices in Batumi, Kutaisi or on the secondary market.
