Buying & Refurbing Moscow Apartment, With Price 👀

[@scottishguyinmoscow]

What do you think of the price? I think the flat is a good price but the renovation was more than I expected. Let me know what you think.

[@АлекШев-д9ы]

The price for an apartment... well, approximately corresponds to Moscow prices. But the renovation cost 4 million.... WELL, this is Robbery! There is a maximum of 1 million (with excellent renovation and furniture). Simply, the apartment itself (old house, old central communications, etc.) is NOT worth the very expensive finishing and furnishings. Below, I gave a little reasoning for my opinion. Yes, housing prices have increased greatly over the past 2 years. BUT, the increase in materials is insignificant. Regular, seasonal. And, by the way, if repairs are done in winter, you can save about 15-20%. Due to the seasonal drop in prices for building materials and services.

My parents, after the birth of me and my brother, received an apartment in a new house of 62 square meters for 4 people in 1991 under the USSR in 1991. Yes, it's a little, an economy option, but for free. A young family, my parents were 22 years old and they just started working. I grew up in it.

Well your parents apparently got lucky getting their quarters without years in queue just about time for privatisation and real ownship. Communal apartments are also very free and very socialist concept.

Love Russia and intend to buy an apartment here some day.

[@sebastiangronoff1469]

In this area, the average price for an apartment in similar buildings, which are not very old brick buildings, around twenty to thirty years old, ranges from three hundred to four hundred thousand rubles per square meter, or approximately from three to four thousand dollars per square meter. So, if we take this apartment's area, which is fifty-seven square meters, and multiply it by the lowest price in the area, three hundred thousand rubles per square meter, we get about seventeen million rubles. Therefore, the price for this area is quite justified. If you were to take a similar apartment in New York, in a comparable location near Central Park but closer to Harlem, it would be in a similar price range. I think the price per square meter would be around ten thousand dollars. So, a similar apartment would cost approximately starts from 570.000 to 1 million $
