LCD Fedinskaya Sloboda

But the history of the construction of the economy class project is vague. Initially, the first stage was supposed to be commissioned in the first quarter. 2014, then the delivery was postponed to the 2nd quarter. 2021. But judging by the current appearance and condition of the complex, on the territory of which local marginalized people come to drink, the developer may not be able to meet the deadline.

The second stage was planned to be completed in the fourth quarter. 2021, perhaps by this time the complex will be finally erected. Moreover, the developer has changed. Initially it was Pushremstroy, known for its long-term construction projects, for example, the Natashinsky Park residential complex in Lyubertsy, which took 8 years to build, and now it has been replaced by Stroymontazhgarant. According to the latest, possibly outdated sales data, the price per sq. m. m. here - 55 thousand rubles.

Raisa, resident of Western Street: “The residential complex began to be built three years ago. They paved a new road, business was going well, there was advertising on the fence, there was even a sign with the name of the complex. Now the stele is overgrown, the advertising has been removed, the cranes are standing, but there is no particular dynamics of construction. True, the object is guarded. In fact, this is not the most favorable place - there is a swampy lowland, and even the official who came to the opening. failed. Besides, as you can see, there’s a smell here – there’s a silo farm nearby.”

The history of the Moskvoretsky Oasis residential complex from the Monomakh developer is even sadder - construction was frozen. A monolithic brick house of variable number of floors (9-14 floors) was to be built on Lomonosova Street, 2. There were many plans: a fenced area, underground parking and its own infrastructure.

conclusions

Average price per sq. m and on the primary market in Voskresensk - 43.5-58 thousand rubles. This is significantly lower than the average for the Moscow region (80 thousand rubles).

The reasons are clear - the long distance from the capital, and the dubious ecology with a well-developed infrastructure. But the city’s population is growing - both through the “forces” of the residents themselves, and thanks to the fact that immigrants are arriving here from different places in Russia. In addition, numerous city enterprises require qualified specialists.

Therefore, the primary real estate market here has its own, albeit not magnificent, prospects, especially since it attracts with its cheapness and is distinguished by a limited number of offers. Moreover, the city infrastructure is at a very good level.
