Acum un an, pre\u0163ul era de aproape 70.000 de euro. &bdquo;O garsonier\u0103 &icirc;n Militari nu poate costa mai mult de 25.000 &#8211; 30.000 de euro. Pentru ca lumea s\u0103-\u015fi permit\u0103 un apartament cu dou\u0103 camere, pre\u0163ul ar trebui s\u0103 fie undeva la 40.000 &#8211; 50.000 de euro. Majoritatea pre\u0163urilor vor r\u0103m&acirc;ne a\u015fa sau vor mai sc\u0103dea. Acum, investitorii \u015fi proprietarii \u015fi-au dat seama c\u0103 &icirc;n anii trecu\u0163i pierduser\u0103 contactul cu realitatea c&acirc;nd cereau pre\u0163uri foarte mari.

Unii dezvoltatori au umblat deja la pre\u0163uri, o parte dintre ace\u015ftia doar pentru a se &icirc;ncadra &icirc;n m\u0103sura autorit\u0103\u0163ilor de a reduce taxa pe valoarea ad\u0103ugat\u0103 (TVA) de la 19% la 5%. Papageorgiadis mai spune c\u0103 sunt foarte pu\u0163ini oameni care mai cump\u0103r\u0103 apartamente, iar acest lucru nu se va schimba p&acirc;n\u0103 b\u0103ncile nu vor mic\u015fora dob&acirc;nzile. &bdquo;Nu suntem &icirc;ntr-o situa\u0163ie &icirc;n care pre\u0163urile s\u0103 scad\u0103 rapid, dar vor sc\u0103dea &icirc;ntr-un ritm mai lent \u015fi se vor stabiliza undeva la sf&acirc;r\u015fitul acestui an sau &icirc;nceputul lui 2010.
