How to choose the best real estate investment in Georgia?
The object of under-investment should bring profit to the investor. To assess the profitability of real estate, you can rely on the following criteria:
- Branded properties are recognizable around the world. Due to this, they always attract a greater flow of guests than apartments / villas / townhouses without a big name. Due to this, rental incomes are predictable due to stable demand and can stay at the level of 12-15% per year.
- The liquidity of an object depends on its uniqueness. For example, Batumi has a wide range of economy and mid-range apart-hotels. Over time, the liquidity of the acquired objects is falling, as the city is undergoing mass development of apart-hotels of the same class. If you shift your attention to elite properties, you can see that the demand for them is extremely high, and there are almost no offers. This ensures high liquidity for premium properties that do not lose value over the years and even become more expensive. In addition, at any time there will be buyers for an elite object.
- The profitability of the object can be specified in the contract with the developer.
