Analysts spoke about the growth in the volume of offers on the Moscow real estate market

An increase in the volume of supply was recorded in the primary market of the mass segment of Moscow. Thus, by the end of May 2025, the number of lots on display increased by 0.9%, reaching 15.2 thousand objects. Analysts of the Metrium company told Izvestia about this on June 10.

The weighted average price per square meter in new buildings in the mass segment was 352,220 rubles, which is 0.5% higher than in April and 2.5% higher than a year ago. At the same time, the number of equity participation agreements concluded decreased to 2,000, which is 23.5% less than in the previous month.

Most often, apartments were rented for a day in the south of the country.

"In May, many developers of comfort-class projects offered a large discount of up to 55% on the mass market of new buildings. Nevertheless, the level of consumer activity sank last month," said Yaroslav Gutnov, founder of SIS Development.

According to him, potential buyers are postponing transactions in anticipation of a reduction in the key interest rate and changes in the family mortgage program.

"The seasonal decrease in activity due to the four holidays only partially explains the drop, as the annual dynamics worsened compared to April (-8.8%) and March (-14.6%)," explained Ruslan Syrtsov, Managing Director of Metrium.

The expert also drew attention to the tightening of banks' requirements for borrowers, which further restrains demand.

The largest number of transactions in May was registered in the Western Administrative District (26%), while the Southeastern District showed an increase in activity to 18%. Analysts predict that in the coming months, the market may face pent-up demand, which will manifest itself after a possible reduction in mortgage rates.
