Domus Avlabari Tbilisi: 220 Flats, Price Range Guide (2026)
Avlabari, Tbilisi, Georgia

Description

Domus Avlabari Tbilisi is a two-block project at 14 Ialbuzi Street in the old district of Avlabari: on 12 November 2026 the developer’s page shows a 23-storey residential block with 220 apartments of 57 to 119 m², a 10-storey office block and a 30-month instalment line, but no price for any single flat.

This guide to Domus Avlabari Tbilisi reads the page of Domus Group as it stood on 12 November 2026, which prints a range of 1,800 to 2,350 USD without a unit, and sets beside it what the listing portals Korter and geoln, and the architects at MUA, print. Prices, handover dates, floor counts and the state of finish differ between these sources, so each figure is given with its source and date and the guide does not choose between them.

It also covers the district and access, the Georgian rules for registering a purchase, property tax and residence for an owner, and a written list of what a buyer can ask for before reserving a flat.

Overview of Domus Avlabari Tbilisi

The developer’s English project page describes Domus Avlabari Tbilisi as a modern multifunctional project in the historic district of Tbilisi, located at 14 Ialbuzi Street, that brings together residential, office and commercial space. It names two buildings. Block A is the residential block, of 23 stories and 220 apartments. Block B is the office and commercial block, of 10 stories, with nine floors of offices and a food court on the first floor. The text was read on 12 November 2026.

Domus Group lists the project among its five current projects, next to Domus Nea, Domus Sera, Domus Trees and Domus Gazapkhuli. The page carries a price block, a flat selector with seven layout cards, a payment section and a map. The price block prints a range per square metre, a flat-size range and an instalment length. It does not print a price for any particular flat, and it does not say which flats are free or reserved.

Because of that, this guide treats the price as a range and shows how the range turns into calculated totals for each layout. Those totals are arithmetic on the printed range and are not offers. The developer’s page also carries marketing wording about views, atmosphere and suitability for living, working and business, which this guide does not adopt as statements of fact.

What each source prints about status, handover, floors, finish and units

Four sources describe the project in detail: the developer, Korter, geoln and MUA. They agree on the 23-storey residential block and on a completion year of 2028. They differ on the date of completion, on the state of finish and on the floor range of the flats. The table puts the figures side by side with the date on which each source was read.

Handover is the item that matters most for planning, and the three dates fall in the same quarter. The developer’s countdown ends at 00:00 on 30 April 2028, and the page does not call that moment a handover, a completion or a key date.

Korter says Block A is due in the second quarter of 2028. geoln’s Georgian page says the developer’s plan ends in June 2028. The first two are consistent, and the third is later by about two months, so the contract date is the one to rely on.

Floors need a separate note. The developer’s text says Block A has 23 stories. Each of the seven layout cards says the flat is available on floors 1 to 22. The page does not explain the difference, which could be a ground-floor commercial level, a technical floor or a selector default. A buyer who wants a particular floor asks for the floor plan and the unit number in writing.

On finish, the developer’s project page does not name a state for this building. The developer’s site carries a site-wide panel titled “Green framework” that lists wall, window, floor, door, sanitaryware and insulation specifications, but the panel is not labelled per project. Korter calls the finish “green frame” and describes screed floors, walls prepared for final finishing and partitions with engineering routed to points. geoln calls it “white frame”. Section 9 asks for the exact specification in the contract.

The seven layout cards: sizes and rooms

The flat selector opens seven layout cards. Each prints a headline area, a count of rooms, a floor range and a list of rooms with areas. The page counts the living room as a room, so a card marked “2 rooms” has one bedroom plus a combined living room and kitchen, and a card marked “3 rooms” has two bedrooms. The bedroom counts in the table are counted from the room lists and are not stated as such by the developer.

Domus Avlabari Tbilisi layout card Headline area Rooms as printed Bedrooms (counted from the list) Floors printed
Card 114 57 m² 2 1 1-22
Card 119 57 m² 2 1 1-22
Card 118 70 m² 2 1 1-22

Card 112 84 m² 2 1 1-22
Card 116 101 m² 3 2 1-22
Card 115 119 m² 3 2 1-22

The room lists allow a closer look. The table below repeats the printed areas and adds two calculated columns: the sum of the printed rooms, and the living room and kitchen as a share of the headline area. The outdoor area is the veranda on six cards and a balcony on card 112.

Card (headline m²) Hall Living room and kitchen Bedroom(s) Bathroom(s) Veranda or balcony Sum of printed rooms (calculated) Headline minus sum Living and kitchen share of headline
114 (57) 4.8 27 12.7 4.9 6.1 55.5 1.5 47.4 percent
119 (57) 4.8 27.2 13 4.7 6 55.7 1.3 47.7 percent
118 (70) 7.5 31.9 15.4 5.4 9.3 69.5 0.5 45.6 percent
117 (75) 7.4 35.7 13.4 5.3 12.4 74.2 0.8 47.6 percent
112 (84) 8.1 36.9 18.8 5.6 12.2 81.6 2.4 43.9 percent
116 (101) 9.8 37.7 16 and 15.6 3.8 and 5.7 9.4 98.0 3.0 37.3 percent
115 (119) 5.1 52 17.1 and 13.2 5.5 and 4 21 117.9 1.1 43.7 percent

Two readings follow from the numbers. First, the printed rooms add up to 97 to 99 percent of the headline area on every card, and the gap is 0.5 to 3.0 m². The page does not say how the headline area is measured or whether the veranda or balcony is inside it.

Since the outdoor area is 6 to 21 m² and the gap is at most 3.0 m², the sums suggest that the outdoor area is counted in the headline figure, but the page does not state it. Whether a price per square metre is applied to the headline area or to the interior alone is a question for the contract.

Second, the layouts differ in character more than in size. The 57 m² cards give almost half of the area to the living room and kitchen, while card 116, at 101 m², gives 37.3 percent and spends more on two bedrooms and a 9.8 m² hall.

Card 115, the largest, has the biggest living room and kitchen at 52 m² and the largest veranda at 21 m², which is 17.6 percent of its headline area. The smallest veranda share, 9.3 percent, is on card 116, and the 57 m² cards sit at 10.5 and 10.7 percent.

The card list holds no studios, penthouses or duplexes. It has five one-bedroom layouts between 57 and 84 m² and two two-bedroom layouts of 101 and 119 m². The two 57 m² cards differ only by tenths of a square metre in most rooms (living room and kitchen 27 against 27.2, bedroom 12.7 against 13), and a buyer comparing them asks which of the two a given unit number follows.

Price per m² range against layout sizes

The developer’s price block is a single line. It is labelled “Price From”, and it shows 4870 – 6350 beside the lari sign (the page renders the sign with an icon font, so it appears as the letter A in a plain-text copy) and 1800 – 2350 beside a dollar sign. No unit is written. The range is read as a price per square metre because the two portals do the same: Korter prints “from $1,800 per m²”, and geoln has a price-per-m² field that reads “from 1800$”.

The match goes further. Korter’s “from $102,600” for the two-room flats of 57 to 84 m² equals 57 times 1,800, and its “from $181,800” for the three-room flats of 101 to 119 m² equals 101 times 1,800. geoln also prints “from 102600$”. So both portals use the lower end of the developer’s range on the smallest flat of each type. The upper end, 2,350, appears only on the developer’s page.

geoln, apartments From 1800$ per m²; apartments from 102600$ geoln.com, listing published 27 June 2025, read 12 November 2026

No flat-by-flat price list is published by the developer or by the portals read for this guide. The table below therefore calculates what the printed range implies for each layout. The totals are headline area times the printed per-square-metre figure, and they are not prices for any unit. The last column shows how much the range alone moves the total.

Layout (headline area) Calculated total at USD 1,800 per m² Calculated total at USD 2,350 per m² Difference between the two ends
57 m² (cards 114 and 119) USD 102,600 USD 133,950 USD 31,350
70 m² (card 118) USD 126,000 USD 164,500 USD 38,500
75 m² (card 117) USD 135,000 USD 176,250 USD 41,250
84 m² (card 112) USD 151,200 USD 197,400 USD 46,200
101 m² (card 116) USD 181,800 USD 237,350 USD 55,550
119 m² (card 115) USD 214,200 USD 279,650 USD 65,450

The upper end of the range is 30.6 percent above the lower end (2,350 divided by 1,800 is 1.306). On the smallest flat that is a gap of USD 31,350, and on the largest USD 65,450. The page does not say what puts a flat at one end of the range or the other.

Floor, view, layout, finish, the date of the contract and the payment route are all possible factors on other projects, and none of them is stated here. The written price list in section 9 is the document that settles it.

The lari figures can be read the same way. Dividing 4,870 by 1,800 gives 2.706, and dividing 6,350 by 2,350 gives 2.702, so the lari line implies about 2.70 lari to the dollar. The National Bank of Georgia’s official rate on 12 November 2026 was 2.5933 lari per US dollar. The page states no rate and no date for its lari figures, so a buyer who intends to pay in lari asks which rate the contract uses and on what date it is fixed.

One more piece of arithmetic is useful for buyers who care about the residence rule described in section 8. That rule is tied to a market value exceeding USD 150,000, set by an accredited assessor, and not to the contract price. As a rough guide, 150,000 divided by 1,800 is 83.3 m² and divided by 2,350 is 63.8 m².

The 84, 101 and 119 m² layouts therefore exceed USD 150,000 at both ends of the printed range, the 70 and 75 m² layouts do so only at the upper end, and the 57 m² layouts do not at either end.

Portal prices put the range in context. Korter lists other new projects near the building and four other Domus projects with a “from” price per square metre. These are listing-site indications of the lowest rate in each project, on different finish states, and they are not comparisons of like with like.

Project on the Korter page (2 November 2026 data) Korter “from” price per m² Relation to Domus Avlabari Tbilisi at USD 1,800
Axis Avlabari USD 1,550 USD 250 lower
Vazha Iverieli St, 23 USD 1,600 USD 200 lower
Bochorma Street by Index USD 1,650 USD 150 lower
Tower Ketevani USD 1,650 USD 150 lower
Suits By Foris USD 1,750 USD 50 lower
Tbilisi Oriental by Next USD 2,250 USD 450 higher
Domusi Gazapkhuli (Domus) USD 1,900 USD 100 higher
Domus Nea (Domus) USD 2,000 USD 200 higher
Domus Trees (Domus) USD 3,200 USD 1,400 higher
Domus Sera (Domus) USD 4,000 USD 2,200 higher

The last four rows show how widely Domus prices vary by project, from USD 1,900 to USD 4,000 per square metre on Korter. For the local market as a whole, the guide to Tbilisi real estate prices gives the wider picture, and the Revenue Service and Geostat publish the official series.

Instalment, mortgage and payment terms as printed

The developer prints a 30-month in-house instalment and one sentence: “Interest-free loan, flexible terms and individual schedule of payment”. The page prints no down-payment percentage, no monthly amount and no schedule table. Korter states that the developer has informed it that instalments are possible and refers the buyer to the developer for the first payment and the term. geoln’s instalment field is empty.

The payment section of the page also carries two gauges. One, titled “Project status”, has a markup value of 52.8 and renders as about 53 percent. The other, under “Installment”, reads “16 months left” and has a markup value of 53.9. The page does not define either gauge, and this guide does not interpret them. For reference, 16 months out of 30 is 53.3 percent, which is close to both values but is not stated on the page as their meaning.

A banner on every page of domusi.com describes a Domus Card on which 5 percent of the amount paid on buying an apartment in a Domus project is accumulated, to be used by the buyer or in other Domus projects. The pages read print no terms for it. It is recorded here as the developer’s description of a programme and nothing more. The written list in section 9 asks for the card’s terms, including any expiry, the way it is credited and whether it forms part of the contract price.

On bank finance, Korter shows a mortgage calculator for this project with TBC Bank as the example lender. On 2 November 2026 it displayed a loan of USD 87,210, a nominal rate of 7.4 percent, an effective rate of 8.3 percent, a monthly payment of about USD 7,562 plus life and property insurance, and a note that the rate is linked to Term SOFR. The developer’s page names no mortgage bank, and Korter itself describes the figures as approximate and as the minimum facility amount.

The figures can be unpacked. USD 87,210 is exactly 85 percent of USD 102,600, the Korter “from” price, so the example assumes a 15 percent first payment. A payment of USD 7,562 a month on that loan at 7.4 percent corresponds to a term of about 12 months, as the standard annuity formula shows, so the displayed payment reflects the calculator’s inputs and not a long mortgage.

The same loan at the same rate would cost about USD 1,743 a month over five years, USD 1,031 over ten and USD 697 over twenty, before insurance and fees. These are calculated figures, not a bank offer.

Bank rules sit above any project. The National Bank of Georgia’s PTI and LTV page sets the loan-to-value limit and the payment-to-income limits that every lender applies, and each bank decides separately whether and on what terms it lends to a non-resident. The guide to mortgages in Georgia for foreigners compares published bank terms with dates. A buyer who wants a mortgage asks the bank, in writing, whether it accepts this project as collateral before paying a deposit.

Two blocks, parking and amenities: what the developer and the architects say

The project has two buildings of different heights on a sloping site. The architects’ page describes the programme as a residential block and an office block “differing in height and function yet conceived as a cohesive architectural dialogue”, with a total programme of 41,000 m² and a reinforced-concrete structure. It names Capiteli and AI MEP as consultants and lists Domus Development as the client. The same page puts the site on the left bank of the Mtkvari River and calls its topography challenging.

A note on arithmetic helps place the 41,000 m². If all 220 apartments were the smallest layout, their headline areas would add up to 12,540 m², and if all were the largest, to 26,180 m². The architects’ figure is described only as a residential and office programme, and neither page says whether it includes parking, common areas or the food court, so it cannot be split into flats and offices from the published material.

Block or feature Developer page (12 November 2026) Added by other sources
Block A Residential; 23 stories; 220 apartments Korter: monolithic frame, two towers of different heights, flat roof with drainage
Block B Office and commercial; 10 stories; nine floors of offices and a first-floor food court; unit count not printed Korter: ground-floor commercial space, office and coworking areas
Parking Four underground levels, with the possibility of arranging an electric-vehicle charger Korter: underground parking with EV charging stations; bicycle parking
Entrance and services Lobby and concierge service Korter: 24-hour security and video surveillance
Lifts Two high-speed elevators, European-made Korter: elevator yes
Outdoor space Green space with a children’s play area Korter: recreation area, landscaped courtyard, sports zones
Windows and energy Aluminium door and window system with multifunctional glass; energy-efficient construction Korter: energy-efficient windows, enhanced sound insulation
Balconies Balcony views and panoramic windows (developer wording) Korter: balcony in every apartment

The right-hand column is Korter’s own text and is a listing-site description. Some of its items, such as sports zones and sound insulation, are not on the developer’s page, and the written specification in section 9 is the place to confirm which items belong to the contract. The developer’s list names no swimming pool, sauna or gym, and none is entered in this guide’s feature fields.

The architects also describe how the buildings meet their neighbour. According to MUA, the volumes were positioned to keep sightlines to the Soviet-era Wedding Palace next to the site, and the choice of cladding echoes its stone facade. The page does not give floor-by-floor setbacks or heights. For a buyer, the practical consequence is that views and light depend on the unit’s floor and orientation, which the layout cards do not state.

Location of Domus Avlabari Tbilisi: Ialbuzi Street, Avlabari and the metro

The address is 14 Ialbuzi Street, in Avlabari. Wikipedia describes Avlabari as a neighbourhood of Old Tbilisi on the left, eastern bank of the Mtkvari River, mentioned in chronicles of the 11th to 13th centuries under the name Isani, and long known as a centre of Armenian life in the city. Isani District, the municipal region, includes the neighbourhoods of Isani, Avlabari, Navtlughi, Metromsheni, Elia and Vazisubani.

Two landmarks frame the site. The Wedding Palace, designed by Victor Djorbenadze and Vazha Orbeladze and built in 1984, is described by the architects as adjacent to the project. By the coordinates on its Wikipedia page it lies about 0.14 km from the developer’s map marker. The Holy Trinity Cathedral, known as Sameba, was built between 1995 and 2004 on Elia Hill in Avlabari and stands about 1.6 km away in a straight line.

For transport, the nearest metro station is 300 Aragveli on the Akhmeteli-Varketili Line. The developer’s map marks it, Korter gives 390 m, and geoln gives a two-minute walk. The Avlabari station opened in November 1967 as part of the stretch connecting Freedom Square, then Lenin Square, with 300 Aragveli. Isani station is a hub for eastern and south-eastern districts, with bus routes to Rustavi, at the start of the Kakheti Highway.

Korter lists six bus routes (305, 309, 325, 333, 337 and 393) and five minibus routes (462, 472, 528, 534 and 540) running near the complex and puts the nearest stop within 300 m. It also places the Kura River embankment about three minutes on foot away and reports convenient access to the Kakheti Highway and the Left Embankment. These are the portal’s statements and no timetable was checked for this guide.

Korter’s text on daily needs says that shops and 24-hour convenience stores lie within 2 km, that medical facilities are 10 to 15 minutes away by car, and that public schools No. 87, 88 and 96, Tbilisi State University and the Petre Shotadze Medical Academy are nearby. No distances are given for the schools. The developer’s map carries markers labelled “New Hospitals” and “Fitness Plaza” without a distance.

The city context is official. The National Statistics Office of Georgia reports that on 1 January 2026 the population of Georgia was 3,941.1 thousand, of which Tbilisi held 1,369.4 thousand, or 34.7 percent by calculation. The statistics office describes this as more than one third of the national population. District-level figures are not in that release.

The straight-line figures in the table are calculated from the developer’s map marker and from coordinates on the Wikipedia pages. The road figures come from the public OSRM routing service on OpenStreetMap data, run on 12 November 2026 from the same marker. They are free-flow estimates and ignore traffic. Where Korter or geoln print a figure, it is shown as printed and is not reconciled with the calculation.

Registration, tax, residence and bank rules for a buyer in Georgia

Georgian law lets a foreigner acquire an apartment on the same basis as a citizen. Article 183 of the Civil Code says that acquiring an immovable thing requires a written transaction and registration of the acquirer’s ownership in the Public Registry. The carve-out concerns agricultural land: Article 4 of the Organic Law on Agricultural Land Ownership limits it to the state, municipalities, citizens and certain Georgian entities.

An apartment in a residential block falls outside that category. The guides on whether foreigners can buy property in Georgia and how to buy property in Georgia give the general picture.

For a building under construction, the order of events comes from the contract and the registry. The registry fee page prices registration of a change of right, and registration of an obligation tied to an ownership right, at three speeds: GEL 150 in four working days, GEL 270 in one working day and GEL 350 on the day of filing.

At GEL 2.5933 to the dollar these are about USD 57.8, USD 104.1 and USD 135.0. The price of the flat does not enter the fee; only the speed chosen does.

A buyer abroad has two usual routes. The first is a power of attorney legalised for use in Georgia, and the Hague Conference status table lists the Apostille Convention as in force for Georgia from 14 May 2007. The second is the registry’s smart-contract service, which registers property rights online through a booked virtual meeting. The guide to buying property in Georgia from abroad goes through both.

Step Who Fee or time Source
Ask for the unit number, price list and draft contract in writing Buyer, developer Not printed on the developer page Developer page
Order a Public Registry extract for the plot, using the cadastral code Buyer, lawyer, registry GEL 20 in one working day, GEL 13 online; GEL 26 more for an English extract NAPR information fees
Match the extract to the project data Buyer, lawyer Korter prints cadastral code 01.17.13.043.023; not checked against the registry here Korter
Sign the written contract Buyer, developer Terms set in the contract Civil Code, Art. 183
Pay according to the schedule Buyer Schedule not printed Developer page
Register the right or the obligation Buyer, registry GEL 150 / 270 / 350 by speed NAPR fee page
Sign from abroad if needed Buyer, registry Apostilled power of attorney, or a booked virtual meeting NAPR smart contract

Neither Article 183 nor the registry fee page sets a handover period for a building that is not yet complete. The handover date, the consequence of a missed date and the way the instalments are protected are therefore matters for the contract, which is why section 9 puts them on the written list.

Georgia amended the property tax for individuals on 30 September 2026. The English text of the Tax Code cites Law No. 1874 of that date, and Article 202(5) sets the rate on a natural person’s taxable property other than land at 0.8 to 1 percent of market value at the end of the previous year.

Article 206(1)(a) exempts such property where the family’s income in the previous year did not exceed GEL 100,000. The EY Georgia brief for July to September 2026 says the earlier threshold was GEL 40,000, so guides written before that date carry older bands.

Under Article 205 a natural person files a property tax return by 1 November and pays by 15 November. The Revenue Service property tax page offers a calculator. Article 201 covers real estate “including an unfinished construction”, so whether a buyer under an off-plan contract counts as the owner for property tax is a question for the contract and the registry record. For the declaration procedure, see the guide to property tax in Georgia.

For income and sales, Article 81 taxes residential rent received by an individual with no deductions at 5 percent, the general personal rate at 20 percent, and the surplus on providing a residential apartment at 5 percent. Article 82(1)(f.a) exempts the surplus from selling a residential apartment with its land when it was owned for more than two years. VAT under Article 166 is 18 percent, and whether a quoted price includes it is a contract term.

On residence, the Public Service Development Agency describes a short-term residence permit for an alien who holds title to immovable property, other than agricultural land, with a market value exceeding USD 150,000 equivalent in lari. At 2.5933 that threshold is about GEL 388,995. The value is established by an accredited assessor, so it is the valuation that counts and not the contract price. A purchase does not itself grant a permit, which is a separate application. The guide to getting a residence permit in Georgia lists the steps.

Points to confirm in writing before paying a reservation

The developer’s page leaves a number of points open, and the portals disagree on several. The list below converts those gaps into requests. It is a normal reservation checklist and not a comment on any party. A buyer keeps the written answers together with the draft contract.

Apartment balcony with view over Tbilisi, developer render
  1. A price list with unit numbers, floors, headline areas and prices in the contract currency, dated, for the flats the developer is actually offering.
  2. Where in the printed range of USD 1,800 to 2,350 per m² the chosen unit falls, and what determines that position.
  3. The handover date to be written into the contract, and what the “Time left” countdown to 30 April 2028 measures.
  4. The exact finish: white frame or green frame, with the specification of walls, floors, windows, doors, sanitaryware and engineering.
  5. The full legal name and registration details of the contracting entity, and whether it is Domus Group or a separate project company.
  6. The construction permit and the Public Registry extract for the plot with cadastral code 01.17.13.043.023 as printed by Korter.
  7. The payment schedule: first payment, instalment amounts and dates, the currency, the rate used for any lari figure and the start of the 30 months.
  8. The account into which payments go, and any escrow or other protection for the instalment money.
  9. The basis of the headline area: whether the veranda or balcony is inside it and what area is priced.
  10. The Domus Card terms in writing, including expiry, crediting and tax treatment, and whether it is part of the contract.
  11. Which banks have confirmed that they accept this project as mortgage collateral, with their conditions for non-residents.
  12. Parking, storage and EV-charger terms, the service charge and who runs the concierge and common areas.

Each answer should come from the developer on paper or in a signed document. A portal listing, however recent, is a third-party description, and portals themselves state that final figures come from the developer and the bank. The guide to how to buy property in Georgia explains how a lawyer fits into this process.

Two items deserve a second look. The countdown and the gauges on the project page are visual elements of the site, and the page labels none of them. A date or percentage in a contract has legal meaning, and a date on a web page does not. The second is the area basis: since Korter’s “from” figures equal the lower rate times the headline area, the priced area should be confirmed unit by unit.

How Domus Avlabari Tbilisi sits among Domus projects and nearby Tbilisi listings

Domus Group lists five current projects on domusi.com. All five are in Tbilisi, and each page uses the same price-block layout: a range per square metre in lari and dollars, an instalment length and a flat-size range. The table shows what each page printed on 12 November 2026. The Domus listings below will carry their own pages on this site once published.

Domus project Address as printed Price block (USD per m², as printed) Instalment months Flat sizes Countdown date Storeys and units
Domus Nea 22 Kavtaradze St. 2000 – 2650 32 70-377 m² 15 June 2028 Units not printed
Domus Sera 7 Paliashvili St. 4000 – 4700 30 59-277 m² 30 December 2028 14 floors
Domus Avlabari 14 Ialbuzi St. 1800 – 2350 30 57-119 m² 30 April 2028 23 stories, 220 apartments
Domus Trees 31 Chavchavadze Ave. 3200 – 4000 20 175-496 m² 1 January 2027 Units not printed
Domus Gazapkhuli 8 Gazapkhuli St. 2000 – 2350 20 67-219 m² 30 December 2027 21 stories, 230 apartments

Within that group Domus Avlabari Tbilisi has the lowest lower-end rate and the smallest minimum flat size, 57 m² against 59 to 175 m² elsewhere. Its upper-end rate of USD 2,350 equals that of Domus Gazapkhuli, and its instalment length of 30 months equals that of Domus Sera. The countdown dates cannot be compared as handover dates, since none is labelled as one.

Several listings on this site stand in the same part of the left bank or across the river. They are shown with the figures their own pages publish, which differ in kind: some give a developer price, some give only portal indications.

Listing Area Published facts (from the listing page) Handover as published
Tbilisi DownTown Avlabari 217 apartments of 27 to 137.9 m², from USD 157,680 for a one-bedroom, 20 percent first payment and 22 months at 0 percent (NEXT) September 2027 (hero block)
NEXT Oriental Tbilisi Ortachala Studios to two-bedroom flats of 36.7 to 107.8 m², from USD 95,160, 20 percent first payment and 37 months at 0 percent December 2028
W2 Isani Park Tbilisi Isani Flats of 61.1 to 125.5 m²; lowest asking price printed for an available flat USD 82,688 (w2.ge); Korter from USD 1,470 per m² Blocks C and D December 2027; Blocks A and B June 2029
Archi Horizon Tbilisi Ortachala Flats of 35.6 to 156.1 m²; the developer prints no price; Korter shows price on request Not printed

Each of those pages states its own sources and dates, and the table does not rank them. For the city and country context there are the Tbilisi city page and the Georgia country page, and the portfolio also includes Mira Verde Tbilisi in Tbilisi Hills. Comparison across these projects has to allow for differences in what is priced, which finish is offered and when the figures were seen.

Domus Group (developer)

Domus Group is a Tbilisi residential developer. The page footer reads LTD “Domus Group”, and the site’s About page dates the company to its founding in 2006 and names quality, novelty and green architecture as its values. A Caucasus Business Week article reproduces a Domus text giving the founding date as 15 September 2006. These are the developer’s own statements.

The developer’s project lists show its portfolio as it stands on domusi.com on 12 November 2026: five current projects, one future project (Domus Kvariati) and 13 completed projects, among them Domus Park Vake, Domus Hippodrome, Domus Kavsadze, Domus Mtskheta, Domus Riga and Domus Chavchavadze 29. The site prints no total of homes or square metres delivered.

The UN Global Compact lists Domus (domusi.com) as a Georgian company, privately held, in real estate holding and development, with participation since 3 May 2023. The listing records a voluntary commitment and is not a quality certification. The pages read name no shareholders or beneficial owners and no financial results, and the sale documents are the place where the contracting entity is named.

The site’s news page carries one item, dated 7 July 2022, on the start of construction at Domus Gazapkhuli, and nothing on Avlabari. The developer’s pages for this project print no partner banks, contractors or consultants other than the architects, MUA.

Frequently asked questions

What is Domus Avlabari Tbilisi?

Domus Avlabari Tbilisi is a mixed residential and office project at 14 Ialbuzi Street in Avlabari, built by Domus Group. The developer’s page lists Block A with 23 stories and 220 apartments and Block B with 10 stories of offices and a food court. Flats range from 57 to 119 m² on seven layouts. It is listed among the developer’s current projects and is under construction according to MUA and Korter.

How much does Domus Avlabari Tbilisi cost?

The developer prints a range of 1800 – 2350 in dollars and 4870 – 6350 in lari, with no unit written, which the portals read as a price per square metre. No price is printed for any single flat. Calculated from the range, a 57 m² flat comes to USD 102,600 to 133,950 and a 119 m² flat to USD 214,200 to 279,650. Korter’s lowest figure, USD 102,600, matches the lower end.

What flat sizes does the project offer?

The developer prints seven layout cards: 57 (two cards), 70, 75 and 84 m² with one bedroom, and 101 and 119 m² with two bedrooms, counted from the room lists. Each card gives a hall, a combined living room and kitchen, bedrooms, bathrooms and a veranda or balcony. The page shows no studios, penthouses or duplexes. Korter lists the range as 56.7 to 119 m².

When will Domus Avlabari Tbilisi be handed over?

The developer’s page counts down to 30 April 2028 but does not call that date a handover. Korter gives Block A as due in the second quarter of 2028, and geoln gives June 2028. All three fall within the same quarter. The date that binds a buyer is the one written into the contract, so a buyer asks for it in writing and asks what happens if it is missed.

How does the 30-month instalment work?

The page prints “Installment (month) 30” and says “Interest-free loan, flexible terms and individual schedule of payment”. It does not print a first payment, monthly amounts or dates. A buyer therefore asks for the schedule in writing, including when the 30 months start, the currency, and where the money is paid. An instalment binds only when it is part of the signed contract.

Is the finish white frame or green frame?

The sources differ. The developer’s project page does not state the finish for this building, although the site carries a general “Green framework” specification panel that is not labelled per project. Korter calls the finish green frame and describes screed floors, walls prepared for final finishing and partitions with engineering routed to points. geoln calls it white frame. A buyer asks for the finish specification in the contract, since that is the document that decides what is handed over.

Where is Domus Avlabari Tbilisi and how far is the metro?

The project stands at 14 Ialbuzi Street in Avlabari, on the left bank of the Mtkvari, next to the Wedding Palace per the architects. The 300 Aragveli metro station is 390 m away by Korter’s figure, and about 0.3 km in a straight line by the developer’s map marker. Freedom Square is 3.6 km by road and Tbilisi airport 14.8 km by road, from a routing run on 12 November 2026.

Can a foreigner buy an apartment in Georgia and register it?

Yes, for an apartment. Article 183 of the Civil Code requires a written transaction and registration in the Public Registry, and agricultural land is the category reserved by the Organic Law on Agricultural Land Ownership. Registration fees are GEL 150, 270 or 350 depending on speed. A buyer abroad may use a legalised power of attorney or the registry’s online smart-contract service.

Does a purchase here give a residence permit?

Not by itself. The Public Service Development Agency describes a short-term residence permit for an alien holding property other than agricultural land with a market value exceeding USD 150,000 equivalent in lari, established by an accredited assessor. A purchase is a separate matter from the permit application. Calculated totals for the 84, 101 and 119 m² layouts exceed that figure at both ends of the printed range.

What property tax applies to an apartment owner?

Since 30 September 2026, under Law No. 1874, a natural person’s property other than land is exempt if the family’s income in the previous year did not exceed GEL 100,000. Above that, the Tax Code sets 0.8 to 1 percent of market value at the end of the previous year. The return is filed by 1 November and the tax paid by 15 November. Rent and sale taxes are in the section on buying.
