Experts have determined the terms of ownership of apartments on the secondary market

Most of the apartments offered for sale on the secondary market belong to one owner and have been owned by him for more than five years. This was reported by analysts of Sberbank's Domclick service based on the results of a study of ads presented on the platform.

On the Domclick showcase, 60.3% of the apartments have been owned for more than five years. The key factor here is the tax exemption on sale. In addition, it is during this time period that living conditions often change: children grow up or have children, and the city of residence changes.

The smallest group is real estate owners who have owned it for three to five years. There are 15.7% of such ads in total. The owners are in no hurry to sell such apartments, primarily because of the need to pay a substantial amount in the form of taxes. A significant part of this group consists of objects inherited or being the owner's only home — in these cases, the period of ownership for sale without tax is 3 years.

24% of the sale ads are held by a group of sellers with a tenure of less than three years. For them, the motivation to sell outweighs the possible financial losses. These may be investors who have bought apartments for quick resale after renovation, as well as forced to sell to Some people are forced to sell their properties due to urgent circumstances. This group of sellers may be more flexible in pricing, as the speed of the transaction is important to them.

Among the large regions of Russia, the maximum number of ads for the sale of housing owned for more than five years was recorded in the Omsk Region (67.6%), and the minimum in the Krasnodar Territory (47.9%). In the segment where the seller of real estate has owned it for less than three years, the largest share of ads is in the Novosibirsk region (36.4%), and the smallest in the Moscow Region (17.9%). And in the category where the object has been owned for three to five years, the maximum share of ads is in the Stavropol Territory (26.1%), the minimum is in the Omsk Region (12%).
