He adds that potential clients who are two months could not solve the housing problem, is now actively working on this.Director of the company “Floors” Ildar Khusainov assesses a one-time surge in demand of 25-30%, provides��Rida that while the owners took polar positions. Some of them began to raise prices, the other chose to make discounts real buyers, experienced a drop in demand in the period of limitation. Mr. Popov is warning that although the owners now have the opportunity to raise prices, this trend will be short-term. “The decline of solvency of the population, rising unemployment and the still existing restrictive measures in each region do not contribute to the stable growth of housing prices,” he says.
