Property management in Georgia. How to find the right one.

In short

If you don't live in Georgia, you usually need a local manager to rent out your apartment. They handle guests or tenants, cleaning, repairs and accounting, and are usually paid a share of the income. Clear duties in the contract and regular, traceable statements matter most.

What to watch

Many new builds have their own in-house management. That is convenient, but not always the cheapest choice.

What to watch

Five questions for every manager.

Ask these questions before you sign a contract.

  1. What exactly is included?

    Listings, check-in, cleaning, laundry, small repairs. Clarify what costs extra.

  2. How is accounting done?

    Ask for monthly statements with bookings, income and costs, ideally with access to the platforms.

  3. Who pays the taxes?

    As the owner you declare tax on rental income. Some managers help with that.

  4. How long is the contract?

    Watch notice periods and make sure listings and reviews stay with you.

  5. References

    Ask about apartments the manager already looks after and talk to other owners.

Frequently asked questions

Questions about property management.

Costs, service charge, switching and bank accounts for property management.

What does a property manager in Georgia cost?

Usually a share of the rental income. The amount depends on the services. Compare several offers with the same services.

Is the service charge the same as management?

No. The service charge pays for the building's common areas, pool and security. Renting out your apartment is a separate service.

Can I change manager?

Yes, if the contract allows it. Look for a fair notice period when you sign.

Do I need a Georgian bank account?

A local account is practical for receiving income, but not always required.
