Rental rates in Moscow increased by a third from June to September, said Alexey Popov , head of Cian.Analytics, as reported by the Moscow City News Agency .
“The abolition of preferential mortgages, prohibitively high rates on ‘regular’ loans, and the high base effect have led to a decrease in the number of transactions and a redistribution of demand between market segments,” Popov explained.
The largest price increase — 28% — was recorded in inexpensive areas of the capital. The leaders were Golyanovo, Dmitrovsky, Sokolinaya Gora and Metrogorodok. The highest rental rates were in Tverskoy (124 thousand rubles), Presnensky (120 thousand rubles) and Khamovniki (112 thousand rubles).
Popov noted that since October, demand has returned to previous levels. Over the past 30 days, prices for long-term rental of one- and two-room apartments have decreased by 1%, to 71 thousand and 126 thousand rubles, respectively.
Before this, it became known that St. Petersburg became the leader in demand for daily rental housing in September, taking 9% of all bookings. In second place is Moscow with 8%. The top five popular cities also included Kazan , Rostov-on-Don and Kislovodsk .
The rental price for the cheapest apartment with a view of the Kremlin was previously announced .
