Georgia real-estate FDI rises to $168.5 million in H1 2026

Foreign direct investment into Georgia’s real-estate activities accelerated in the first half of 2026 even as total FDI into the country declined. Detailed sector data obtained from Geostat and reported by BM.GE put real-estate FDI at about $168.5 million for January–June, compared with $131.4 million in the same period of 2025. That is an increase of $37.1 million, or about 28.2%.

Among disclosed source countries, Israel contributed $33 million, Russia $26.6 million and the United States $26 million. Germany followed with $9 million, the United Kingdom with $8.2 million and Saudi Arabia with $7.6 million. Some country-level information is withheld when publication could reveal commercially confidential information, so the disclosed ranking does not represent a fully observable country split.

The result matters because Georgia’s overall FDI moved in the opposite direction. Geostat’s preliminary H1 data put total FDI at $750.1 million, down 22% year on year after revisions to the comparison base. Real estate therefore remained an important recipient of foreign capital despite weaker aggregate inflows. The figures describe investment into real-estate activities as an economic sector; they should not be read as foreign purchases of apartments or as a measure of residential transaction demand.
