this was said by Deputy Minister of construction, housing and utilities Nikita Stasyshyn at the meeting of the Commission in the field of housing policy of the Public Council under the Ministry of construction.
Now, according to him, the fall in housing construction volumes by 5.4% compared to the same period last year. But more worrisome, said Stasyshyn, causes a decrease in the volume of housing under construction.
“If we want to enter the housing 120 million in 2024, of whom 80 million apartment in the building should be around 130-145 million square meters. And in the construction site are only 99 million square meters, and today is a decline of 17.1%”, – he noted.
One of the main reasons that prevent steady rise in the volume of construction – lack of land plots provided with infrastructure, primarily we are talking about a heat supply, water treatment and disposal.
because of the difficulties in the economy now, said Stasyshyn, even have to cut by 100 billion rubles to the construction costs of infrastructure have already been contracted obligations. In addition, it prevents the increase in construction of banks ‘ reluctance to lend to the project developers, with a margin of less than 15%, a large number of already built but unsold by developers of apartments and decrease of purchasing capacity in a pandemic.
However, considers the Deputy Minister, the volumes of 120 million square meters of housing by 2024 is real, if it is implemented at least half of the measures prescribed in the National plan of action and all measures that are included in the program of development of housing mortgage (which is included in the National plan).
“There are individual housing construction, and rent, and calculations on the fact, as far as possible to reduce the interest on the mortgage”, – said Stasyshyn.
