They\u2019re affordable to a wider range of renters: single professionals, students, couples without children, and digital nomads all fit comfortably into a studio or one-bedroom, while only some of that pool would consider a two- or three-bedroom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This shows up clearly in district-level data: in Vake, one-bedroom apartments have been generating around 5.98% annual yield versus roughly 5.33% for two-bedroom units, according to district-level yield analysis a gap partly explained by smaller units renting more efficiently relative to their purchase price. The same dynamic broadly holds in Saburtalo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-fb608e504eb36286956baa24081084ba\"><a>Where two-bedroom and larger units still make sense<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Larger units aren\u2019t a bad investment they simply serve a different, more specific tenant profile:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Families and long-staying expats,<\/strong> particularly in Vake, where international-school proximity draws a meaningful share of family tenants who prioritize space and stability over price.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Shared households,<\/strong> where two or three roommates split rent on a larger unit common among students in Saburtalo near the district\u2019s universities and hospitals.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Corporate or long-term relocations,<\/strong> where a company is footing the bill and prioritizes comfort over cost-efficiency.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The tradeoff is a smaller pool of qualified tenants and, often, a longer search when a lease ends but typically at a higher absolute rent per month, even if the per-square-meter yield is lower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-343350e41dc3d6411f74160e05103de5\"><a>The standard reference point<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most Tbilisi rental market data including Galt &amp; Taggart\u2019s benchmark rent figures is built around a 50\u201360 sqm apartment, which usually functions as a one-bedroom or a compact two-bedroom. That size range sits right at the sweet spot: large enough to feel like a real home, small enough to stay affordable to a broad tenant base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-3379824a024f32fe48241ab61385e398\"><a>The practical takeaway<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>If you\u2019re optimizing purely for rental yield and speed of leasing,<\/strong> a well-located studio or one-bedroom in the 35\u201355 sqm range is generally your easiest, fastest-renting asset.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>If you already own a larger unit,<\/strong> don\u2019t fight its size lean into marketing toward families or shared households, price it clearly for that segment, and expect a somewhat longer but still viable search.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>If you\u2019re deciding what to buy next,<\/strong> size your purchase to the tenant demand in your target district: one-bedrooms in Saburtalo, family-friendly two-bedrooms in Vake.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Data referenced: District-level yield analysis by unit size (Vake, Saburtalo); Galt &amp; Taggart benchmark apartment size (50\u201360 sqm) used in rent and yield reporting.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Size shapes your tenant pool more than almost any other single factor it determines who can afford your rent, who needs the space, and how fast your unit moves off the market.
