Realtor showed an apartment sold for $80,000. Belarusians were amazed
An apartment in need of renovation, located in a five-story building on Siadykh Street in Minsk, was bought for $80,000. The realtor shared the deal's outcome on Threads, sparking active discussion.
In less than a day, the post gathered over two hundred comments, notes Realt. Some consider the price high. Others believe that such a state of the apartment is better than an option with old renovations.
— Renovation here will cost around 25 thousand. So, tell me, is it worth 100+? — a commenter in Threads asks.
— This is a better condition than one with 50-year-old renovations. At least everything old has been dismantled and removed. That costs decent money. Only someone who has done renovations in the secondary market can appreciate it, — another user wrote and collected several hundred likes.
A realtor also agreed that the price was justified.
— My opinion as a certified realtor — an excellent price! It could have been tried for $85,000. Siadykh is a great location. This is not a Khrushchevka, but a Brezhnevka! The apartment is perfectly prepared for renovation! The buyer will do everything to their taste! Pervomaisky district is very green, with many parks, clean air, and excellent infrastructure! And for those who suggest 60 thousand, look for a one-room apartment in Shabany, maybe you'll get lucky.
