(I had informed you since last year that, due to &ldquo;Prima Casa&rdquo;, the prices in top areas have almost become the same with the ones in Titan, Drumul Taberei etc). But there was one offer which made me blink:<\/span><\/span><\/span><strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\"><span style=\"font-size: small;font-family: Times New Roman\"> <\/span><\/span><\/strong>\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify\">\n\t<strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman\">The Add<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n\t<span style=\"font-size: small\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman\"><strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\">&ldquo;VICTORIEI, Piata<\/span><\/strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\">, garsoniera renovata, utilata, mobilata,<!--:--><!--more--><!--:en-->internet, metrou, <strong>30 metri patrati<\/strong> cupluri, salariate, civilizate, proprietar, negociabil, &nbsp;<strong>Pret:160Eur. <\/strong>Tel. 0732&hellip; \/ 0746&hellip;<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify\">\n\t<strong><span><span style=\"font-size: small\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman\">The translation<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n\t<span><span style=\"font-size: small\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman\">On Piata Victoriei, garsoniera (studio) renovated, with all utilities and furnished, internet, metro, 30 sq.m., (preferred) couples with salary, owner, negotiable.

This is the end of the road. When a renovated studio downtown costs 160 euro \/ month (negotiable), then how much should it cost so as to be in &ldquo;distress&rdquo; price? And if this is the price downtown, how much to be in other areas?<\/span><\/span><\/span><br \/>\n\t<span><span style=\"font-size: small\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman\">This price is definitely very low and someone might say that it is an exception. But a colleague of mine rented a studio (of 48 sq.m.) at Dorobanti, with 250 Euro \/ month and there are plenty of offers with similar prices. So this is the real market today, in terms of rentals of small apartments in downtown areas. Yes, this add represents the bottom of the market, in this category of properties.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify\">\n\t<strong><span><span style=\"font-size: small\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman\">The beginning of the end?<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n\t<span><span style=\"font-size: small\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman\">So, if we reached bottom in residential rentals of small downtown units, does this mean that this is the beginning of the end? Are we close to the moment that the market will stabilize and then it will go up again?<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify\">\n\t<strong><span><span style=\"font-size: small\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman\">or the end of the beginning?<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n\t<span><span style=\"font-size: small\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman\">Or did we finish with the first phase of crisis and now we enter to the core of it, which will lead to the stabilization of prices at these levels on the long run?
