Didn't pay utilities and lost apartments. Now this housing can be bought at a price lower than the market rate
Periodically, apartments with a "history" are sold at auctions in Minsk: their owners didn't pay utilities, and as a result, their housing is confiscated and offered at a price lower than the market rate. Anyone can participate in the bidding. What options are currently available, writes Onliner.
One such confiscated apartment is located in the building at Hrybny Lane, 28, in the Paunochny (Northern) village within Minsk. This is a panel high-rise building constructed in 1990. The one-room apartment, with an area of 33.8 sq. m, is on the second floor. Those wishing to compete for this lot must prepare at least 166,000 rubles (approximately $58,200 equivalent) — this is the starting price, which may increase during the bidding.
The bidding step is 5% of the initial figure.
