Today, business parks are increasingly becoming of particular importance for tenant companies that transfer back-offices, in order to improve the quality of space while reducing costs. It is also important to note that the Moscow-South industrial corridor is forming in this area, including warehouse and industrial complexes on the Simferopol highway and near the Podolsk city, which contributes to the formation of demand for office space on the outskirts of Moscow along the Warsaw highway. This is also facilitated by the fact that the geographical center of Moscow, taking into account the annexed territories, is located in the south of the old borders of the city. The modern largest business parks of the city, such as «Komsiti», «K2» and G10, are already located in the south, however, in contrast to them, «Solutions» on Varshavskoye is located inside the Moscow Ring Road three minutes' walk from the metro.

Andrei Lukashev, ILM managing partner, on the first day of MIPIM. This year, the list of participants in the largest international real estate exhibition in Cannes is significantly different from the list of delegates last year and the year before. For obvious reasons, Russian representatives came much less, and the exhibition was dominated by international participants from Europe, America and Asia. Nevertheless, many representatives of Russian companies arrived, which is undoubtedly a positive sign. A delegation of the Moscow Government also arrived at MIPIM, whose report on the development of infrastructure projects turned out to be relevant for many listeners. It should be noted that there are practically no empty stands this year, despite the absence of many Russian delegates. Their place was taken by representatives of the European and American market with a large number of interesting new products. And those of our compatriots, who nevertheless appeared at the exhibition, are actively committed to finding investors and co-investors for their projects. As for the future attitude, the majority of delegates have rather pessimistic expectations regarding the development of office real estate. Most professionals see more prospects in residential real estate, which will be the engine of the market.  

British appraisers offer Russian real estate agents to work on the basis of 12 principles of professional ethics. January 30, 2014 in Moscow, the British Royal Institute of Certified Appraisers (RICS) for Russian realtors, brokers and consultants in the field of real estate held a presentation of the International Standards for the quality of brokerage services (REABS). REABS standards are a set of rules and regulations that guide real estate professionals in Europe. The standards were developed at RICS, "they form the basis for the provision of high-quality agency and brokerage services, taking into account the specifics of local legislation and the market." “In Russia, where there is a stereotype of dishonesty of realtors, the adoption of international standards, according to experts, will give a new impetus to the development of the market and will create a basis for trust in communications between all parties to the transaction,” British experts say. Now REABS principles are applied by 110 European companies. In Russia, seven major players joined these standards last year: ILM, Jones Lang LaSalle, GVA Sawyer, Cushman & Wakefield, Colliers International, Knight Frank and IntermarkSavills.
