Big House Big Troubles
These days while US property markets hit the lowest growth levels in Russia those markets are booming, especially in Russia’s capital the glorious Moscow city. Last year property prices grew for more than 100% and the average price is around $6200 for a sq/m, it’s something like $700 for one square foot of the apartment in the house like this one, on the picture above. So many companies try to build as fast as they and cut costs as much as they can to get as the profits as high as they can why the market is growing. Some guys have visited this building’s underground part to check how safe to buy the flat there? Here are some shots:

fake
Who the hell will get himself to a sewer just to check the house’s quality?! This is what I call a “serious buyer”.
7th!!!!!!! That building needs to be stood on more than concrete straws. I think maybe it is. Did he check the airspace above for any crap aircraft………..
“So many companies try to build as fast as they and cut costs as much as they can to get as the profits as high as they can why the market is growing.”
lol
The photo of the building and the photos of the sewer seem to be of completely unrelated sources.
A warning to brothers in Russia– capitalism is all about “boom and bust”, pun intended. The market will be great for a while, then will fall, and many will lose money, just like these buildings will be good for a while, then fall apart.
As opposed to a constant terrible economy, yes?
these look like stills from Stalker
Oh shit.
So when it collapses, what direction will it fall? Perhaps on top of that little house? Or straight down, like the WTC?
Has such a building collapse of a new (less than 5 years) occurred in Russia? Apparently it does with Stalinist-era towers, but Putinesque dwelling places?
I hope it wont collaps, I want to buy a flat at the top (:
Moscow now has the most expensive real estate in the world.

Many state this as a fact, but it turns out to be a self fulfilling prophecy in many cases.
The asking price is not a selling price. People read everywhere that real estate is so expensive, so they straight away want their piece of the cake and increase the price of whatever they might own.
Indeed, some of the most expensive property appears to be in Moscow. Prices of up to 30.000 dollars p/m2. But these are exceptions. Although prices are indeed ridiculously high. In particular when taking into account what you get for this money - quite mediocre and poorly build basic apartments without gas, electricity and a kitchen. You buy four walls, that’s it.
I can buy big dildo for you boy
I agree .
Crazy russians, how can they be so crazy??? Oh, I forgot, they are the best about everything, and about being crazy too!!! :-)))
why the builder did not use Google Earth to scan the land before building the tower?
Where is the proof that those tunnels are below that building?
So they forgot to check the city plans and pushed the foundation through a sewer below?
This is what those diggers (who made the photos) claim. The construction company responds that the sewer is 40 meters away from the construction site. The diggers are going to check this out on Jan 30 (today).

I recall a similar case of piling into the Moscow subway.

Although I have a stronger deja vù about those piles. I wouldn’t be surprised if it turned out to be archive photos from the net.
Russians are so poor, I feel sorry for them. I heard that sponsoring a russian child is less expensive than caring a dog.
I heard in south carolina a trailor is considered upper class.
Only if it’s a double wide.
tailors are considered to be middle class.
oh wait, TRAILERs? yeah, they’re great too.
capitalism russian style ?
IGOR IS BALDY FAG
FAKE FAKE FAKE FAKE FAKE FAKE FAKE FAKE FAKE
If this was built in the USSR, there would be no recourse for the shoddy construction.
At least in the free market, people can inspect for themselves, and if they dont like the quality, they can refuse to buy it, and the crappy developer is stuck with his mistake.
In a communist society, the people have to live in it anyway and there is less risk on the part of the constructor. If the customers dont like it in a state society, they cant just choose the “competitor” instead, nor can they choose to make their own building.
In a true, working communist society the people should have the option to say no we won’t live there because it is not safe; and there should be a law that would prevent the government from forcing them to live there… IDIOT
they can then go to a “competitor”apartment complex built by another group of engineers; and then the government will demolish the unsafe one and rebuilt it right;
WOW - ONLY CAPITALISM CAN ACCOMPLISH GOOD WITH “FREE TRADE, FREE MARKETS” and UP YOUR ASS INFLATION EVERY F*CK!N BOOM-AND-BUST CYCLE
I.D.I.O.T.!!!!
l would love to see interior Russian homes (21 century )
And exteriors too, to see if they look what they are worth….
I just started using this site today. I really like a lot of the post. But there are a few like this one that are absolutely fake. The first photo obviously has nothing to do with the others.
the author of this site seems to really hate russian people…
Once a friend of a friend of mine bought an apartment in a new district around Moscow. THe apartment was planned on the 14th floor. After the building was finished, he had a little problem: there wasn’t a 14th floor, they stopped after the 10th floor. Of course everything was paid for in advance. So he went to court together with the owners of the 11th to the 20th floors to get their money back. They are still waiting.
I can’t see any relation among pics.
