Offices will become cheaper and less high -quality

The crisis will lead to a revision of the concept of many commercial real estate facilities put up for sale. There will be a quality transition to the number in the segments of office and shopping centers, writes the website of the newspaper Vedomosti with reference to the opinions of market participants.

“It is discussed if not alteration of offices to hotels and apartments, then at least a decrease in class, this applies to shopping centers,” said the newspaper Anzori Khasia, adviser to the head of the Otkritie FC representative office. “If not the quality of construction, the quality of the decoration, services, and the level of service” will be reduced.

So far, developers do not talk about the official decrease in the class of objects. But the pretty decreased demand for offices forces to find measures to attract tenants. For example, initially MCG did not plan in the Imperia Tower complex in the Moscow-City MMDC to sell squares, hoping to rent them for $ 1200-2000 per square meters. meter per year. “But in the spring of this year, we allocated one floor divided into small blocks, the price tag was from $ 6,000 per square meter for areas that do not differ in species characteristics,” said Dmitry Chertkovsky, the company's commercial director.

Before the crisis for high -class business centers, crushing the squares and their sale was considered a moveton, now - salvation. This is all the more appropriate for the BCS, the "Vedomosti" note.

"The displacement of demand for offices in cheaper segments was taken into account. So, in the structure of the demand for the rental of offices in the class of buildings, the leader remains class in: it accounts for 44% of applications. For comparison, in the first half of 2008, almost half of the requests accounted for class A (48%). If in the first half of 2008 there were only 1% of applications, then in the current year - already 38%," - - already 38%, " - The Director General of the NDV-Real Estate, Alexander Khrustalev, cites the data of its own research and survey of market participants.
