According to TBC Capital's assessment, an unusually large number of transactions in December 2021 was related to the decision of the National Bank, which set the maximum permissible duration of mortgage loans taken in foreign currency to 10 years instead of 15 years. The announcement of the changes forced citizens to purchase real estate before the regulation came into effect.

According to the organization, the sale of residential real estate in Tbilisi last year increased by 17% on average, and the price of rental housing increased by 77%.
