Should I buy or rent a home in Moscow?
If you have not spent a lot of time in Moscow, you should rent before even thinking about buying. We asked expats there about the buy vs. rent decision...
"Buying a home in Moscow can be a great investment, as the city is a major economic and cultural center. However, it is important to consider the cost of living in Moscow, as it is one of the most expensive cities in the world. Renting a home in Moscow can be a more affordable option, as it allows you to enjoy the city without the long-term commitment of buying a home. Additionally, renting can provide more flexibility if you are unsure of how long you will be living in Moscow. Ultimately, the decision to buy or rent a home in Moscow depends on your individual needs and budget," remarked another expat who made the move to Moscow, Russia.
