Mortgages for non-residents exist, but the terms for them are, as a rule, stricter than for citizens. Banks assess income, the origin of funds and documents in different ways, and the size of the down payment depends on the bank's requirements and on the regulator's limits.
Start with the short material on mortgages for non-residents and the detailed guide: they describe the general scheme and the questions banks ask. If the borrower is a Russian citizen, a separate material covers that situation. The calculator helps estimate a payment and compare options, but the result remains approximate. The material on a bank account describes the requirements for documents and the source of funds that come up with a mortgage as well.
What to prepare: documents on income and the source of funds, an idea of the currency in which you earn, questions for the bank about early repayment and insurance, and a payment estimate with a margin for a change in the rate.

Frequently asked questions
Can foreigners get a mortgage in Georgia?
A mortgage is available to non-residents, but the terms are, as a rule, stricter than for citizens. The requirements banks set are described in the material on mortgages for non-residents and in the detailed guide. The final terms are given by the bank.
How can I estimate the monthly payment?
The payment depends on the amount, the term and the rate. The site has a calculator for an approximate figure; the real payment must be confirmed with the bank, because it is set by the terms of the particular contract.
What should I prepare before approaching a bank?
Documents on income and the origin of funds, information about the property and a list of questions on the terms of the contract. Typical documents are listed in the detailed guide; the exact list is named by the bank itself.
