Demand for apartments in new buildings in the Moscow region increased in 2025

In the first quarter of 2025, 12.1 thousand equity participation agreements were concluded in the market of new buildings in the Moscow region. The indicator grew by 24.8% in the quarter and by 25.8% in the year. In February, the maximum number of transactions was registered — 4,6 thousand, the minimum — in January (3,3 thousand), follows from the results of the real estate and consulting company Metrium, which were reviewed by Izvestia on April 18.

"The overall increase in demand does not mean an improvement in the market conditions for all players — the local successes of large developers with an affordable price offer may mask the narrowing of the market for other participants," said Ruslan Syrtsov, Managing Director of Metrium.

According to him, despite the positive dynamics of the total volume of transactions, the Moscow region's new building market is showing growing polarization: large developers with budget proposals are increasing sales, while other players are facing declining demand.
