Batumi Delivery Index
Batumi Delivery Index
What delivery evidence is actually documented? We track a growing set of major developers and publish numeric delays only where the original promise and later status can both be sourced. The current table is an evidence register, not a complete reliability ranking.
The Index
Evidence coverage: 0 verified promised-versus-status comparisons across 23 tracked records. Until coverage is broader, treat this as an evidence register, not a league table of developer reliability.
| Developer | Verdict | Worst verified delay | Verified comparisons | Records tracked |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Alliance Group | Established brand; entity and phase scope matter | No verified comparison | 0 | 2 |
| Ambassadori Group | Established hospitality brand; island delivery unproven | No verified comparison | 0 | 4 |
| Dreamland Oasis / Sak Tur Kurort | Operating resort; active residential phases | No verified comparison | 0 | 3 |
| NEXT (Next Property) | Multiple entities; project-level checks required | No verified comparison | 0 | 4 |
| Orbi Group | Official delivery record; entity scope matters | No verified comparison | 0 | 7 |
| Pontus Development | Strong operator evidence; flagship under construction | No verified comparison | 0 | 3 |
Rows with only a completion status, an approximate secondary report, or an unverified buyer report are visible in the detailed record but excluded from the numeric delay comparison. Method: how we build the Index.
Why delivery evidence matters
For an off-plan buyer, delivery timing affects how long capital is tied up, when rental income can begin, when title may be registered and whether the purchase can support a residency plan. A documented delivery history is not a guarantee, but it is more useful than a render or an undated launch promise. This Index shows what can be verified and where the evidence remains incomplete.
How to read a delay
The “worst verified delay” is the largest numeric gap in a row where both the original promise and later status are sufficiently documented. A few months is common in construction; a slip measured in years is a different risk signal. “No verified comparison” means the evidence is incomplete, not that the developer delivered on time.
The full record, developer by developer
The project-by-project detail behind the Index. Delivered projects are marked as delivered; a delay is only recorded where the original promise and the actual handover can both be sourced.

A numeric delay appears only where both sides of the comparison are sufficiently documented. Status-only rows and buyer allegations remain visible because they may help a buyer investigate, but they do not become a score by repetition.
Why project scope matters: Alliance Centropolis
Alliance Centropolis shows why one completion date can mislead. Hyatt announced an expected 2025 opening for the hotel component in 2021, while Hyatt’s current development map lists that hotel as On Hold. A July 2026 property-portal snapshot separately lists residential Blocks B and C for Q4 2028 and Block A for Q4 2029. Those are different components and evidence classes, so the Index does not turn them into one project-wide delay number. See the sourced Alliance Centropolis profile and Alliance developer record.
Common questions
How do you decide a project was late?
We compare the completion date a developer promised at launch – ideally from an archived official page or dated launch announcement – against the strongest later-status evidence available. Public records and official updates are preferred; credible reporting may be used but is labelled. The gap in months is the delay. If we cannot source the original promise, we do not record a delay; we mark it “not documented” rather than guess.
What does “No verified comparison” mean?
It means we do not yet have enough sourced evidence on both the original promise and the later status to calculate a numeric delay. It is an evidence gap, not a clean record.
Does a late-delivered project lose value?
Not necessarily – a delivered building can still be a sound asset. The risk of a poor delivery record falls mostly on off-plan purchases: your capital is tied up longer than planned, rental income starts later, and there is more time for something to go wrong. For a completed unit you can inspect, the finished product matters more than the history.
Why don’t the sales sites show this?
Because it works against a sale. A portal earns its fee when you buy, not when the building is delivered on time, so the promised-versus-actual record is the one number it has no incentive to publish. We earn from qualified introductions we stand behind, not from any single developer, which is why we can.
How often is the Index updated?
Whenever we verify a new promised-versus-actual data point or a developer reaches a handover. Each figure is dated and cites the snapshot or record it came from; the method is on our methodology page.
How we build it
Each row identifies its evidence type and source. Numeric delays require a documented comparison; status-only entries and buyer reports are visible but not scored. The full method and correction policy are on the methodology page.
Checking a specific developer before you buy?
Tell us the project or developer you’re weighing up. We’ll send their delivery record and the honest risks before you commit a deposit.
