NOV. 21 2022 (The Bulletin) — Real estate prices in Tbilisi have risen by nearly 28% in the last year, mainly because of the influx of Russians into the country, TBC Bank reported. An estimated 800,000 Russians fled to Georgia in March and then in September after Vladimir Putin ordered a mobilisation. Around 100,000 have stayed in the country. There have been multiple accounts of rental and sale price rises in Tbilisi.
