It is known that the suburban market at all times, a reasonably large number of objects, which are called illiquid. These are homes that can not sell it for the money that was invested in their construction. Another 5 years ago, they were palaces, constructed, for example, by the roadside. Today, of course, such mistakes no one is making. However, some cottage settlements sold well, while others are realized with great difficulty. `Over the past year has been a noticeable deceleration of sales in the projects that` the old `do not take into account the wishes of the buyer`, - says Natalya Chukaeva, Director of marketing analysis of the Management Company `SCALE`.
According to specialists, to date, suburban mortgage is in the very early stage of development. However, gone are the days when banks are extremely reluctant to give loans for the purchase of suburban housing. Now every self-respecting bank has among its products at least one proposal for the suburban mortgage. But even in spite of the fact that the proposal is growing, the demand still remains low. If the market rate of urban real estate transactions involving mortgages had already exceeded 30 percent, over the city, the figure is 3-5%.

In 1990 the demand for suburban property in the tens of times higher than the offer. We developers, who managed at that time to assess market needs and respond to them, the business flourished.
