I would say yes, for companies. Companies need to align themselves with the legislation. However, what do the individuals do?

How to buy a property with Bitcoin remotely?

Did you know you could purchase a property remotely? You do not need to be physically traveling to Georgia in order to buy a condo here.  I understand, that you might need to see the property before you invest. But for some people, do not have to see investment property before they make an investment. it is just an investment property, they find a reliable developer or an agent who can also manage their properties. This way, they can just settle the payment when their agents do the rest of the job with property registration and later property management. 

Checklist for buying real estate remotely with Bitcoin:

To buy investment property remotely, without even visiting the country and leaving your own home, you need to follow the following checklist: 

  • Find a reliable trustee in that country. That could be our company or any other. 
  • Find a real estate investment property of your needs.
  • Agree with payment and other terms
  • Sign the pre-purchase agreement remotely. For this reason, you need to send apostilled or legalized POA in Georgia. The original is required. Your trustee then will translate and notarize it. 
  • Settle the payment. 
  • Ask your trustee to sign the final purchase agreement. 

And, Walah! The next day you are the owner of the property.

The property sell procedure explained in detail

for those who are not in Georgia and cannot come to Georgia, we take care of property selling or buying remotely, with the help of the power of attorney. To sell a flat you need to use some Real Estate websites that are quite popular in Georgia list your properties there, receive calls, answer them, meet your buyers and show them the property, talk with them to negotiate terms and once they agree on the terms you need to prepare purchase agreement, go to the public service hall to sign these papers that’s it you are pretty much done. 

 When does the buyer pay while selling a flat?

 this practice is quite inconvenient for some people because it happens at the same time. Either you go first and sign papers and then the buyer gives you money in cash or bank transfer to you or either buyer gives you money at first and then you assign a paper. this is inconvenient sometimes for either party but that’s how a majority of deals are done in Georgia. We never faced any problems with that. For extra security, people can register pre-purchase agreements.  

What happens if the buyer won’t pay or seller won’t register ownership after buying a real estate?

 in that case, you will need to go to court. in that case, the pre-purchase agreement does not make any sense because you can go and prove that you are right in court with the sales agreement too. The terms of sale are all these details that I mentioned stipulated in the pre-purchase agreement as well as in the sales agreement. As some people think that they are extra secure with a pre-purchase agreement when the outcome is the same if either party did not comply with what they have promised. imagine what happens or what happens if they will sign this paper and the next day you will decide not to transfer this money the seller needs some Assurance as well as the buyer’s right there should be some mutual trust involved.

First of all, we check the status of the property in advance to make sure that there is no liability registered for that property and as we know that this property is all clean, with no mortgage usually you/
