Meeting of Professionals in the ‘Counting Office Chickens’ Market

On 7 October the editorial board of the ‘Real Estate and Construction in St. Petersburg’ newspaper organized a meeting of professionals in the office market at the new Senator Business Centre in the former Frunzensky Department Store. The meeting was attended by members of the NP Discussion Club: developers, brokers, managers and consultants.

Evgeniy Druzhinin, Head of Maxima Legal’s Real Estate and Construction Department, described the legal niceties arising from attempts to ‘squeeze’ more advantageous conditions out of a contract. In spite of the crisis, most Class A and B business centres have managed to maintain the amount of occupied space at a high level, so the discussion proceeded in a positive frame of mind.
