Market notes

  • The asset profile is larger and more operationally demanding than central apartments.
  • Foreign legal entities may face different questions than individual buyers or permanent residents.
  • Compliance checks matter because larger assets often involve institutional counterparties or historic state-linked usage.

Due-diligence checklist

  • Clarify owner, occupier, and counterparty identity.
  • Review security, generator, water storage, parking, and staff accommodation needs.
  • Map sanctions exposure before any payment path is designed.
