Metropol Cube, Oval and Next Address: Apartment availability in Batumi, October 2026

HomeRadar compared its recorded catalogue data for 11 and 28 October 2026. Available listings changed from 62 to 56 at Metropol Cube, 62 to 54 at Oval, and 152 to 149 at Next Address. These figures describe the published supply observed on two dates. They should not be read as the number of completed property transactions.

How many apartments were listed as available in October?

The figures are totals from the monitored catalogue. Such listings can include individual apartments, representative floor plans and occasionally non-residential units. The counts therefore describe available catalogue entries, not an independently verified inventory of every physical apartment in each development.

Across these developments, available listings fell by 17. Yet only two previously available entries changed directly to “sold”: one at Oval and one at Next Address. Fourteen became reserved, three were temporarily withheld, and two previously unavailable entries returned. These changes reconcile the headline reduction without assuming 17 completed sales.

Metropol Cube: reservations reduced the advertised supply

Metropol Cube is a development by Metropol at 21 Niko Pirosmani Street, close to Heroes Alley. The project is under construction and incorporates planned hotel-related facilities and shared spaces. HomeRadar indicates 2027 as the expected completion year. Buyers should confirm the handover date and services attached to their specific apartment.

Its available count moved from 62 to 56. Seven listings became reserved and one previously unavailable entry returned to the available list. No direct change from available to sold was observed in this comparison.

That is not evidence that no apartments were purchased. A sale might pass through a reservation stage, while catalogue updates can lag behind contractual events. What the data supports is narrower: the observed decline was driven by reservations, offset by one return.

Oval: one sold-status change alongside seven reservations

Oval, also developed by Metropol, is at 9 Zhiuli Shartava Avenue near Heroes Alley. The proposed development includes apartments and hospitality-style amenities. HomeRadar lists an expected delivery year of 2027. Buyers considering long-term use should also examine road traffic and future construction in the surrounding district.

Oval started with 62 available entries, the same number as Metropol Cube, but ended with 54. Seven listings became reserved and one was subsequently marked as sold. The monitored comparison did not record a return to availability.

This offers a clear contrast. Reservations explain the movement at both Metropol projects, but only Oval recorded a direct sold-status change from its initially available catalogue entries. That label alone does not establish the contract date, the amount paid or the registration of ownership.

Next Address: a sold-status change, three holds and one return

Next Address, developed by Next Group at 11 Tbel Abuseridze Street, sits near Heroes Alley. The project involves several high-rise buildings, residences and planned communal facilities. The stated apartment handover is Q4 2028, making the contractual completion schedule particularly important for buyers planning a move.

Its availability changed from 152 entries to 149. One entry was marked sold, three became temporarily unavailable, and one previously unavailable entry returned. The net decrease was therefore three, even though four entries ceased to be available during the interval.

Temporary unavailability is not proof of a purchase or necessarily a reservation. The record does not establish why those three listings were withheld. Anyone interested in a particular apartment should request written confirmation of its current availability and payment conditions.

Why a lower available count does not automatically mean stronger demand

A falling availability count can be read too quickly as evidence of successful sales. The three cases show why that is unreliable. Reservations can lapse, withheld apartments can return, and a published sold label cannot replace an independent check of completed transactions.

Several successive observations are needed to evaluate sustained changes in primary-market supply. Even then, initial developer sales do not tell owners how quickly they could resell an apartment on the secondary market.

What buyers should verify before reserving an apartment in Batumi

Begin with the particular apartment in Metropol Cube, Oval or Next Address: check its number, floor, area, layout, view, finish, total price and payment schedule. Save the dated offer and request written confirmation of availability. If an apartment is reserved or temporarily withheld, ask whether and under what circumstances it could return to sale.

When comparing prices on two dates, compare the same apartment rather than two different advertised starting prices. For a property under development, verify handover terms, fit-out obligations and the scope of any promised services. A small public inventory does not necessarily mean that every building or phase has few apartments left.

Frequently asked questions about Batumi new-build availability

Does Oval’s decline of eight available entries mean eight apartments were sold?

No. Seven entries became reserved and one was marked sold. These observations do not confirm eight completed transactions.

Why did Metropol Cube show no direct sold-status changes despite a decline?

The observed change consisted of seven reservations and one return to availability. Sales that move through reservation stages may appear differently or later in a catalogue.

Why did three Next Address entries become temporarily unavailable?

The reason cannot be established from the two snapshots. These listings were no longer available but were not marked sold. Buyers should confirm the status of their chosen apartment with the developer.
