The Russian real estate market can feel the impact of the ruble depreciation only under the condition that this trend will continue for at least six months, whereas it is not worthwhile to expect an instantaneous market reaction, experts say polled by RIA Real Estate.

The ruble exchange rate on Tuesday is falling against the dollar and the euro amid the announcement by the Bank of Russia about the resumption of purchases of foreign currency on the domestic market in the interests of the Ministry of Finance.

The dollar rises on Tuesday to 67.3 rubles, the euro - to 77.5 rubles.
