There are usually no major "hidden" taxes in Georgia: there is no stamp duty as understood in many countries; the annual property tax is low (depending on the municipality); a capital gains tax may apply to short-term sales (for example, the rate and conditions vary, but are often fixed for transactions completed in the first years of ownership). There are also standard expenses: notary/legal services, agent commission (usually ~2−3% depending on the market), and registration fees when entering the registry
