The Kestler&Wolf communication agency interviewed more than 1,000 Russians over the age of 18 and compiled a rating of stopping factors when buying real estate in current realities. First of all – an alternative to invest in a business.
Six stopping factors when buying a property:
- a possible alternative to invest in a business, since now is the ideal moment – 41% of the votes;
- inability to pay a mortgage in the future – 19%;
- potential problems of the managing company with the maintenance of the infrastructure implemented by the developer – 16%;
- growth of utility bills – 11%;
- reduction in the cost of purchased housing – 10%;
- Lack of willingness to have their own home, since this charge is 3%.
The survey also showed that almost one in five (19%) did not lose confidence in developers, believing that the construction industry can adequately respond to challenges.
For 16%, confidence has fallen critically; they consider buying an apartment in a new building an extremely risky undertaking.
Another 14% also noted a decline in confidence, but they assess the prospects of market leaders well.
12% have changed their attitude for the better, as they are convinced that the state will support developers.
More than a third of respondents (39%) noted that the level of trust in developers has not changed, having been at a low level in calmer times.
