The expert predicted an increase in housing prices in the Moscow region due to the opening of new metro stations

After the opening of new metro stations, apartments in the immediate Moscow region will begin to rise in price 1.5-2 times faster. The consequences of the appearance of the subway outside the Moscow Ring Road for the housing market were predicted by the commercial director of the Metrium company Dmitry Proskurin, his words are reported by TASS.

“Demand for primary housing until the end of 2026 is likely to increase in all stated areas. In the medium term (5-7 years), apartments in the areas under consideration will rise in price on average one and a half to two times faster than in locations where there is already a metro,” the expert said.

In general, the decision to extend the metro into the Moscow region will be a serious impetus for the development of the agglomeration. The liquidity of housing in the satellite cities of the metropolis will increase and will stimulate a serious rise in prices, which will outpace inflation, Proskurin predicted.

“At the same time, it should be taken into account that many of the announced stations are planned to be built only in 10-12 years. Accordingly, a sharp rise in prices here should not be expected until the early 2030s, but a smooth upward correction of the indicator will begin in the next 1-2 years,” concluded the head of Metrium.
