Over a long period of time, commercial real estate can bring higher returns than renting residential and more expensive premises. Many companies recovering from the crisis do not need huge premises to house all of their employees. After a year and a half since the pandemic, the business has managed to establish remote work for the main team. This allows you to save on utility bills and other office expenses, however, companies sometimes need premises for a warehouse, receiving visitors and correspondence, for installing equipment and creating jobs for those who will serve it. The lease price and the location of the premises play a role here.

Due to the fact that Moscow is actively developing, the city can provide an incentive for the growth of many startups in the field of IT, the beauty industry, delivery and other areas, such a business needs small offices. Last year, grocery retail received a big boost for growth, so companies began to open new branded outlets in the city and move to the regions. Therefore, retail premises will also be in demand and are suitable for long-term investment. In addition, in the first half of 2021, there was a record growth in the volume of commissioned office premises (double growth compared to 2020). Builders predict high demand, so they have already handed over 446 thousand square meters. m of real estate.

As for the apartments, in the capital they are 10-15% cheaper on the primary market than the usual apartments, and in the secondary market such real estate is growing in price, so apartments, due to their availability, are usually purchased for subsequent resale or rent - the payback period is lower, and the entry threshold is more affordable for private investors. If last year in Moscow the price per square meter of apartments was 293 thousand rubles, now the average is 337 thousand rubles.
