Chaqvi, Georgia: Black Sea Houses and Apartments Near Batumi

Adjara is a subtropical coast with mountains behind and a humid, rainy climate. Batumi, the regional hub, offers a seafront, high-rise hotels and a casino and nightlife scene, and Chaqvi sits to the north along the coast road in a greener, quieter setting. Summers are warm and winter beach life is minimal.

The related city links we hold are Batumi, the nearest, along with Tbilisi and Saguramo, which are in a different part of the country and should be treated as separate markets.

Foreigners may buy apartments, houses and non-agricultural land in Georgia, but not agricultural land. Ownership is registered with the Public Registry, and a transaction can be completed quickly with a notarised or registry-signed contract. Georgia does not levy a significant transfer tax on a standard sale; check for outstanding debts, building permits and boundary disputes. Since 1 March 2026, a property purchase worth at least $150,000 can support a residence permit application under the rules then in force, but confirm the current criteria.

Ask whether a flat is in a completed building with a registered title, how hot water and heating work, and what maintenance the owners' association charges. Landslide-prone slopes and sea-level questions should be checked on any hillside plot.
