While the secondary housing market does not herald the summer "lull": prices continued to rise in June, analysts said the real estate market.Average cost per square meter increased by 62% of the studied cities, the average price of apartments - 56%. Housing continues to rise in price in all categories, but the most severely rising prices for oversized one-bedroom apartments.

In June, house prices in the secondary market the majority of Russian regions continued to grow. According to experts, in 22 of the 40 cities studied Russian Federation square meter on the "secondary housing" went up in 4 - remained unchanged at 11 - became cheaper. Average apartment prices also rose in 22 cities of 40. "It should be noted that in most studied regions for the third consecutive month of rise in price apartments in all categories, from least expensive" odnushek "to" treshek. "The most affordable one-bedroom apartments increased in price in 76% of the studied cities, the standard one-bedroom - 60% doubles - in 52% and two-bedroom - 59% ", - says the experts.


"Usually in the summer of slow growth rates, but the statistics of June shows that the period of" calm "has not yet come - higher prices in the spring the trend continued in the first month of the season" - commented Director of Development Portal "The World of flats" Victor Schebletsov. However, he noted that in the past three years, the seasonality of sales in the secondary market is seriously affected crisis. For example, in the capital in 2009, the lowest prices were recorded in August and early September 2009 (the cost of square meters. M amounted to 151 976 rubles), but in the past year, prices during the summer in Moscow grew.

"Property owners are on a" flat for sale expose on the desired price, a buyer - well, if not - think about it a couple of months whether to reduce the price "- added Schebletsov.

Incidentally, the period during which sellers can "think" varies depending on the region. According to experts, the average time an apartment in Saratov exposure was less than three months, the longest real estate for sale in Yaroslavl (since the release of apartments on the market before buying it in this city is on average more than six months).

Second consecutive month of growth in the number of leaders is Lipetsk, where the price per square meter increased by another 2.2% and came close to the psychological barrier of 40 000 - 39 864 rubles per square meter. m (May prices rose by 4.2%). But if last month there was decrease in the average purchase price of 3.3%, in doing so, it grew by 4.2% (to 2,126,892 rubles), indicating that the new availability of the accommodation of various categories and a large area. In addition, the strongest price increase in June, touched exactly three-bedroom apartments: they rose in price by 3.5%, while the average price "treshki" amounted to 2,687,774 rubles.

Second place on the inflation divided Samara and Khabarovsk, where the cost per square meter increased by 1.8%. In Samara, it was 48,447 rubles, and in Khabarovsk - 54 395 rubles. "Steady growth in property prices in Samara can be attributed to the region's economic recovery after the crisis. In June, the city even in the top three leaders of megacities on the quality of conditions for small and medium-sized businesses in the ranking of the NGO" Support of Russia ", - explained Schebletsov . However, we can not say that apartments in Samara bought up like hot cakes: the average exposure time is 4.8 months, experts say.

The most seriously in June fell flat in Saratov: cost per square meter in this already "affordable" city declined by 2.8% (up to 32 772 rubles), while the average apartment price - 3.4% (to 1,819,808 rubles). In April and May, Saratov has led the growth, but the market corrected the expectations of sellers: in June, property prices have almost returned to the February values.

0,9-2,2% down on the price of apartments of all categories, except for oversized "odnushek": it is the cheapest accommodation, by contrast, rose by 3.8%. However, the average price of this apartment is still no more than a million - 878 806 rubles. Saratov - the capital of the weak economy, its recovery after the crisis has been very hard, which can not affect the real estate market: in this city so far, even two-bedroom apartment can be found for less than one million rubles.

Second consecutive month, cheaper apartment in the capital of Western Siberia. Cost per square meter fell in Novosibirsk for a further 1.3% and broke the psychological barrier of 50 000, amounting to 48 854 rubles. The average price of the apartment also decreased by 2.8%, passing the mark of 3 million - in June it had fallen to 2,976,742 rubles. The city fell flat in all categories, from cheap one-bedroom (-0.6%) to treshek (-0.2%). And most strongly, by 2.2%, reduced the price of a standard one-bedroom. Note that in March, real estate in Novosibirsk, expensive, and also in all categories. The average exposure time was 4 months flat.
Again in the top three leading cities, but this time with falling prices, fell Tula, where the cost per square meter decreased by 0.7% (up to 42 807 rubles). The average price of apartments in the city increased by 0.3% (to 2,482,280 rubles). Prices in the secondary market of Tula, as in the Khabarovsk, unstable, multidirectional dynamics observed in this region for more than two years. "Since January, the cost of housing in the city declined in May, the apartment went up by 2.3%, but in June we saw another, albeit small, decrease in price per square meter", - said Victor Schebletsov.
