@@dinod-americaninthephilipp9238 Hey! I went through the cost of living in Tbilisi in this video: th-cam.com/video/tVg2ZiXEjBc/w-d-xo.html. Let me know if you still have questions :)
Hi Dmitrii, thanks for the great video! There is one point that I'm personally dealing with now finalising the contract, it seems almost all landlords request to be paid in USD, but is it standard to only have USD in the contract or also GEL equivalent?
@@Freddymars I think the standard is to only have USD in the contract. Lari wasn't stable for years so they're using USD for big purchases and rent. Right now actually Lari is getting stronger towards dollars so it's better for you to have USD price :)
This video has really inspired me. I’m learning python and Lua at the moment and hope to be able to remotely work from anywhere in order to move to Georgia. It’s my greatest dream and my girlfriend is thrilled with the next two years we will be saving up and working hard for in order to get there
Never heard about Tbilisi 2 hours ago, and here I am thinking about going live there for a while (I had thought about goint back to Ho chi minh, but the visa stuff there is annoying). Thanks for all the informations !
Thank You for posting this video. I’m considering traveling to Tbilisi, Georgia 🇬🇪 next year. I found the information in this video very informative and helpful. 😁👍🏻
I really liked this video Dimitrii. You gave a good overview and some nice points to orient yourself as a beginner. I am wondering, is the internet in Jikia house stable enough to do livestreams and video calls? Do you share the internet with the people in the housing via wlan or do have access to your own router? Keep doing what you do, its inspirational and informative. Thumbs up.
Hey! Thank you for watching and kind words :) Internet in Jikia is really stable and good. Although, we had a bad router in the beginning and I asked our landlord to replace it and he did. It was perfect since. No disconnects, no high ping. I often have video calls via Zoom or Slack and don't have any issues. I don't do livestreams but I'm sure it should be fine. I don't share my Internet connection with anyone. And just in case I changed Wi-Fi password 😅
Thanks! Glad it helps. Current restrictions: - No more than 6 people gatherings - Masks are mandatory everywhere From 1st of December 2021: - Almost all public places require a QR code which you can get if you're vaccinated Better to check or ask me one more time closer to your arrival because these restrictions are changing really fast. I hope you'll have a great time in Georgia!
Thanks for the video, very informative! Is it difficult to find an apartment to rent in Tbilisi, in those areas (Vake, Vera...), or not? Not sure if there is enough offer to rent an apartment there and if negotiating the price is possible. Interested in moving to Tbilisi next year :)
Thanks! It depends on your budget. It's difficult to find a cheap apartment there but if you're able to stretch to $600 or even more it's quite easy. In my opinion there is enough offer in Tbilisi market right now. You can check ss.ge to check how many apartments are available :)
Amazing video!!!! I’m moving to Tbilisi in January and find it pretty useful!!! Thank you! May I ask how’s Jikia residence connected by transportation with the city center? Is it too far?
Thank you! Glad it was helpful. Jikia house located right near the State University subway station. All the buses here as well. Also, the taxi is pretty cheap so it's no problem to reach the city center.
@@dpashutskii thank you! Seems like it's convenient to take a subway from there then.... I do like Vake better though, but apartments are quite pricey there. Thank youuu!
hi there, thanks for your great content and thorough explanation! what do the agency and landlord ask to rent the apartment? proof of income? IS there a specific rule? in France you need to show that you earn 3 times minimum the price of the rent for example and work as an employee or it will be very difficult to find a place... thanks for your help
We didn't provide anything, just a deposit of 1 or 2 month. Yeah, in Europe it's completely different, same here in the Netherlands, you have to provide a bunch of documents and income proof of 3x the rent price. In Georgia, it was nothing.
You can see the footage from the apartment I lived back then starting 5:40. Apartments here vary a lot so better to check AirBnB or ss.ge to glance on how apartments with different pricing look like
@@dpashutskii would you be up for a collaboration Video at some point? That's always what I most loved about youtube. We are based in Germany but we can exchange clips or something.
Hello Dmitri, I've just found your channel and suscribed because this information is very useful. I'm planning to go to Georgia in September, and I'm going to look for apartments in the website you recommended, because on Airbnb the prices are crazy high. By the way, do you have the contact for the aparment you rented? I have the same budget for accomodation, so it would be very good to rent an apartment that someone can say that is 100% real. Thank you in advance and greetings from Morocco!
Hey Tomas! Good luck with travel! I think that apartment was sold already so won't be useful. I still have contact of the agent that find us that apartment - +995 599 77 03 93. She has WhatsApp. Bear in mind the prices are totally different now. The apartment we rent for $300 now rented out for $700-$800
It's not the best in the world for sure but more/less okay for work. It's strange that Magti phone Internet bad for you. For me, it worked perfectly. It worked much better than any home Internet.
Hi there, I've been currently living in Georgia by staying in Airbnb however I want to stay longer now and find a place to rent in Tbilisi. Regarding utilities, do you pay them seperatly of to the landlord each month? Airbnb kind of make it easy to just turn up and get on with it without any additional costs or bills.
Does Tbilisi have good gyms for working out, lifting weights? And are some of the Georgian women beautiful or attractive!? In Tbilisi is there enough to see and do without getting bored?
Yeah, there are plenty of gyms here. I personally don't go to gyms but I know many expats who don't have a problem with choice. Haha, the question about beautiful women is a bit subjective, isn't it? I think all women are beautiful :) I would say it's quite vibrant city: many bars, nightclubs, restaurants etc. For sure, it's not as it was before because of COVID but still plenty of places. Besides, you have the whole country with mountains and amazing nature. I can't imagine how to get bored in here.
Never heard of it, you can enter the country either on PCR or vaccination or with document that you recovered from the virus. However, here in Tbilisi from the 1st of December you can't go to bars, restaurants, movie theaters, shopping malls etc. without green pass. You only can get green pass if you are vaccinated. Or on PCR test but it expires every three days.
So I’m Moving from Dubai and i acc work remotely so that’s one of reasons that iwant to move thier rent prices are super low but how is internet prices ?
You are producing great content but the 'background' music is way too loud and distracts from what you are saying. I would prefer no music but if you want to keep using it then please consider reducing the volume so that it does not compete with your voice when you are speaking.
Hey! The prices changed a looot since I've rented something in Tbilisi. I guess it could be somewhere from 300 until 800, depends on the area if we're talking about private place. For shared room I have no info.
@@dpashutskii wow that’s unfortunate… how do i know which ones are pet friendly… non of the search engines for the websites have a pet box that i can check off…
Vake is a concret disaster! Perhaps the apartments here are modern, and sometimes luxurious, but the so-called urban "developing" destroyed the once beautiful quarter, which was previously also the area of the so-called "Soviet intellectual class". Today it's a real mess, especially for car owners that always stuck in traffick. Vera is much better, but "Sololaki" and "Mtatsminda" are athe parts of Tbilisi, where you can live and discover the real Tbilisi. In short, everything that happens to the west after the Philharmonic Concert Hall is always traffic, and not authentic Tbilisi!
Well, everyone entitled to their opinion :) People love different things and there is no bad and good areas. That's why Tbilisi is so cool it offers different areas for every taste.
@@dpashutskii i would suggest "plekhanovi" district for stay as well. It's arround "Fabrika Hostel" and Marjanishvili area. Also very intertesting area to live and discover? mostly for those who loves old and authentic places and also colonial architecture There are no high buildings at all!

Sorry but I already left the apartment! You can find a little bit of it at 5:40.
Do you have any videos showing your apartment in Tbilisi or Batumi? I'd love to see what they look like.

Thank you for this information. Pls could mention street or postcode near European university. Trying to get accommodation
I don't know this area very well, you can search on ss.ge by the area.
What was the website he was showing the rents on ? Are there similar once with maybe better offers ?
It's ss.ge
Some where safe for student by European uni
Thank you so much
Tbilisi is a very safe city (and Georgia in general)
Dima, does the WiFi here generally suck? What did you think was the best provider? I have MAGTI for the phone but for Internet? It's so-so
It's not the best in the world for sure but more/less okay for work.
It's strange that Magti phone Internet bad for you. For me, it worked perfectly. It worked much better than any home Internet.
Thanks for your talking history
Thanks for listening :)
Awesome 👏
Thanks!
When talking about different areas, showing a map would be helpful.
Good idea, I think I only had a map with areas in russian back when I was recording this video.
Thank you.
You're welcome!
Hi there, I've been currently living in Georgia by staying in Airbnb however I want to stay longer now and find a place to rent in Tbilisi. Regarding utilities, do you pay them seperatly of to the landlord each month? Airbnb kind of make it easy to just turn up and get on with it without any additional costs or bills.
It depends on the contract, but usually you pay them yourself. It's usually very convenient via your bank application with a few clicks.
Hi
Hi what are the rent costs now for a one bed apartment ? I’ve heard the prices have gone up
Yes, I think the average price I've seen for similar we rented is $800. So the price went 200% on average.
Does Tbilisi have good gyms for working out, lifting weights? And are some of the Georgian women beautiful or attractive!? In Tbilisi is there enough to see and do without getting bored?
Yeah, there are plenty of gyms here. I personally don't go to gyms but I know many expats who don't have a problem with choice.
Haha, the question about beautiful women is a bit subjective, isn't it? I think all women are beautiful :)
I would say it's quite vibrant city: many bars, nightclubs, restaurants etc. For sure, it's not as it was before because of COVID but still plenty of places. Besides, you have the whole country with mountains and amazing nature. I can't imagine how to get bored in here.
@@dpashutskii Thanks for your opinion! I love the mountains and nature. 😊👍🏻
Hi, is there any short stay apartment is there for tourists. I like to rent it for 3 to 4 days.
Airbnb and booking.com can help you with short stay.
Is it true that the vaccine will be required to get into Georgia?
Never heard of it, you can enter the country either on PCR or vaccination or with document that you recovered from the virus.
However, here in Tbilisi from the 1st of December you can't go to bars, restaurants, movie theaters, shopping malls etc. without green pass. You only can get green pass if you are vaccinated. Or on PCR test but it expires every three days.
@@dpashutskii Well no Tbilisi for me. Too bad.
Great summary, thank you!
REAL ESTATE RULES ? WHICH WEBSITES TO SEARCH FOR AGENTS ? WHO PAYS AGENTS COMMISSION ? HOW MANY MONTHS DEPOSITS ?
I think I mention the answers to all of those questions in the video. Website is in the description.
So I’m Moving from Dubai and i acc work remotely so that’s one of reasons that iwant to move thier rent prices are super low but how is internet prices ?
Internet is very cheap and reliable. Don't even worry about Internet prices.
Can you assist me with getting an apartment?
You can hire a real estate agent for that.
You are producing great content but the 'background' music is way too loud and distracts from what you are saying.
I would prefer no music but if you want to keep using it then please consider reducing the volume so that it does not compete with your voice when you are speaking.
Thanks for the tip! I will pay attention next time. It's very quiet for me but I guess the different speakers could play it differently.
How much cost for studio room ?
Hey!
The prices changed a looot since I've rented something in Tbilisi. I guess it could be somewhere from 300 until 800, depends on the area if we're talking about private place.
For shared room I have no info.
Foreigners can rent house in Georgia ?
Yes, no limitations on where are you from.
Is the rent is per month?
Yes!
are units pet friendly mostly?
Rental apartments? Mostly not, as everywhere in the world :)
@@dpashutskii wow that’s unfortunate… how do i know which ones are pet friendly… non of the search engines for the websites have a pet box that i can check off…
You usually ask the owner
You're paying for the commission. It may be hidden into the other costs but the customer always pays.
The renter pays it in case of Georgia. Not always customer pays it.
