OREANDA-NEWS. For the first time, in over eight years, making a bank deposit is starting to become more profitable than investing money into Moscow real estate, reported the press-centre of  Penny Lane Realty.


In the begging of 2007 investments made into Moscow’s real estate are predicted to give on average no more than 5% yearly gains. According to the real estate market investigation center “Indicators Of Real Estate Market” (IRN.ru), for the last half a year an average price of a square meter in Moscow only increased by $89 to $4120 for square meter of an apartment, in the remaining half a year this price will decrease  at the rate of 0,1% a month.


Specialists of prestigious real estate company Penny lane Realty also agree, that average gains from investments made into Moscow’s real estate market are leveling off. Because of it, we see increasing number of properties being offered for sale. Property owners are trying to recover the money they invested into their real state. According to market analysts, in present time we are observing reduction of investments made into real estate from 20% to 5-7%, but it does not mean, that investing into real estate became less profitable in comparison to making bank deposits. Investments made into real estate remains to be highly profitable business, but only for professionals, who knows all the unique details of real estate market. “Easy” money, made from real estate investments will no longer exist.
