Methodology

Where the data comes from

Market prices and transaction volumes are drawn from published listings and recognised market reports (for example Colliers and Galt & Taggart), cross-checked against per-district asking prices. Residency and legal thresholds are taken from official regulations and reputable immigration-law sources, and re-verified before each update.

The Batumi Delivery Index

This is the part nobody else publishes. For each major developer we record what handover date a project promised at launch – captured from archived versions of the developer’s own launch pages – and compare it to when the building was actually delivered, verified against the public registry. The gap, in months, is the delivery record. Promised dates always cite the archived snapshot they came from.

Cadence and corrections

The Market Monitor is refreshed monthly. Project and developer profiles carry their own “last updated” date and are reviewed quarterly or whenever material news breaks. When we get something wrong, we fix it in place and note the correction – openly. Spotted an error? Send it to us.
