Rosstat announced the fall of housing construction in large regions

According to the published data of Rosstat on the housing market for 2013, the volume of housing commissioned increased by 5.6% compared to 2012 and amounted to 69.4 million square meters. meters. The same growth rates were recorded in 2012 - but the tendency to slow down growth probably begins to affect this sector. In the leaders of the fall of housing input in the Russian Federation, the largest regions - Krasnodar and Stavropol Territory, Volgograd and Sverdlovsk regions, Kommersant writes.

So, in the Sverdlovsk region, the drop in the volume of housing commissioned compared to 2012 amounted to 6.8%, and in the Krasnodar Territory - 9.8%. Among the economically developed large regions in the south of Russia, a decline in the sector is also noted in the Volgograd region (5.7%), much less in 2013 was built in the Stavropol Territory (a fall in the sector - 15.1%).

Analysts note that, despite the total increase in the volume of housing accepted in 2013, the data does not contradict a slowdown in housing demand due to a decrease in solvent demand. The growth of housing construction is largely provided with regions with a low base - in particular, in Kalmykia the increase in 2013 amounted to 27%, in Mordovia - 14%, in the Tula region - 62%, in Ingushetia - 280%.

Relatively large growth rates are noted after the depression of several years in Moscow, where large -scale construction is underway in new territories, as well as in the Moscow region, where the proximity to the metropolitan agglomeration and financial resources of Moscow ensures a loss from the all -Russian trend.

The market problems are also evidenced by Rosstat. The breakdown of the entry of new housing in 2013 by month. In December 2013, 16.4 million square meters were commissioned. meters of real estate, which is 2 million square meters. meters less than in 2012. As a rule, in the last month of the year, commissioning the largest volumes of real estate is issued. In the fourth quarter of 2012, an increase in the input year was recorded on the residential real estate market by the year.

Some experts have a trend towards reducing the volume of work in housing construction since the fall of 2012, predicting that the lower point of the crisis will fall in the summer and autumn of 2014.
