New threshold vs. the transition rule
The threshold increase doesn’t override the rights of those who purchased property before the deadline — a separate, explicitly protected condition.
What the process consists of
The property must be confirmed by an accredited appraiser — a simple purchase agreement without an independent appraisal is not enough.
How the process runs

Frequent questions
Why do many sites still say $100,000?
That figure applied before 1 March 2026 — from that date the threshold rose to $150,000 for new applicants, but the old figure continues to appear on unupdated sources.
What if I bought property for $100,000 before the deadline?
Per the available data, you can renew the residence permit without a new appraisal at the old threshold, as long as you maintain ownership — the transition rule protects purchases already made.
Is an independent appraisal mandatory?
Yes — per the available data, the value must be confirmed specifically by an accredited appraiser; a simple purchase agreement is not enough.
Can agricultural property be used for this programme?
Per the available data, the programme is designed for non-agricultural property — agricultural land does not qualify under this threshold.
Does this programme lead to Georgian citizenship?
No — this page covers a 1-year residence permit with annual renewal, not citizenship or a separately described path to it.
What happens if the property is sold after receiving the permit?
Per the available data, renewal is tied to maintaining ownership of the property — selling likely ends renewal eligibility; the exact mechanism is not disclosed on this page.
