Experts have studied the housing market in resort towns

Increased demand for housing is noted in almost all resort towns of the Kaliningrad region, Krasnodar and Stavropol territories, analysts of Domclick found out. Experts analyzed the primary and secondary markets in May 2025 and May 2024.

The largest increase in prices on the market of new buildings was noted in the coastal resort towns of the Kaliningrad region. So, in Baltiysk, prices for the year increased by a third (32%), to 110 thousand rubles per 1 sq. m. Zelenogradsk is in second place (+27%, to 233.5 thousand rubles). Mineralnye Vody closes the top three, where prices increased by 17.6% to 120 thousand rubles per square meter.

A decrease in prices was recorded in Krasnodar, Zheleznovodsk and Svetlogorsk (-36.7%, to 197.9 thousand rubles per square meter). At the same time, there was an increase in the supply of secondary housing at more attractive prices in Svetlogorsk, which attracted solvent demand.

Secondary real estate in resort locations also continues to rise in price. The leaders in price growth in the Kaliningrad region are Svetlogorsk (+23%, up to 210.6 thousand rubles per square meter), Zelenogradsk (+15%, up to 235.2 thousand) and Pionersky (+12%, up to 179.8 thousand).

As for the supply on the secondary market, a decrease in the number of facilities was noted in most resort cities, especially in Mineralnye Vody (-58%), Krasnodar (-54%), Sochi (-48%), Svetlogorsk and Tuapse (-40%). Supply growth was recorded only in Zheleznovodsk and Kislovodsk (56%).

"The reduction in supply in key locations (Sochi, Krasnodar, Mineralnye Vody) may be the result of increased demand in recent years. In addition, some owners may delay the sale during the summer season and temporarily enter the short—term rental market, which is especially popular in resort towns," the analysts explained.
