What is a business class housing
Business class housing complexes in Moscow are one of the stable and actively developing segments of the city real estate market. They occupy an intermediate position between mass housing and premium projects, combining improved consumer characteristics, relatively high quality construction, developed infrastructure and location in demanded areas.
Unlike household and comfort class housing, a business class is distinguished by a higher cost of construction, a well-thought-out architectural concept and improved planning of apartments. At the same time, it remains more accessible than premium projects, which ensures high interest from wealthy buyers and investors.
The main characteristics of the LCD business class
Among the characteristic features of the living complexes of the business class include:
- The location within the MKAD, more often in prestigious or developed areas (Western, South-West, Central, Southeast Administrative Districts).
- Monolithic-frame construction technologies, high quality finishing materials, energy-efficient facades, improved elevators and engineering systems.
- A variety of planning solutions, including apartments with dressing rooms, several bathrooms, kitchen-living rooms, ceilings high from 2.9 m and above.
- Closed territory, protection, video surveillance, access control systems.
- Underground parking, including family parking spaces.
- Developed internal infrastructure: fitness rooms, cafes, studios, coworking, kindergartens and gaming zones.
- The improvement of the house territory, landscaping, the presence of walking areas, yards without cars.
A business class is not only housing, but also a certain level of comfort, privacy and security. At the same time, it retains the “housing” function, unlike the premium segment, where representatives or image goals can prevail.
Geography and supply volume
According to the data in mid-2025, in Moscow there are more than 250 residential complexes, which in their characteristics can be attributed to the business class. Of these, about 70–80 are under construction, the rest have already been commissioned or put into operation partially.
The western and southwestern regions of the capital-Filevsky Park, Ramenki, Ochakovo-Matveevskoye, as well as areas near the Leninsky and Kutuzovsky Avenues, remain the most saturated business offices. For example, interest in buying housing is preserved from customers who want buy an apartment in the residential complex on Mosfilmovskaya — This direction stably attracts investors due to the proximity to the center, developed infrastructure and the prestigious image of the region.
In addition, the business fever is actively built in the areas of Presnensky, Tagansky, Danilovsky, Zamoskvorechye, near business centers, parks and historical quarters. Popular areas near the metro stations, MCC and MCD.
Per square meter and pricing
Prices in the business class segment vary widely, depending on the location, stage of readiness at home, the reputation of the developer and architectural solutions. In June 2025, the business class housing range in Moscow is as follows:
- On average in the city: from 380,000 to 650,000 rubles per m².
- within TTK: 600,000 — 900,000 rubles per m².
- In locations of the premium type, but in the business segment (for example, Mosfilmovskaya): from 700,000 rubles and above.
The final cost of the apartment is affected not only by its area, but also by species characteristics, the presence of finishes, ceiling height, floor, number of windows, features of space zoning.
It is interesting that with the beginning of 2024, the demand for apartments with an area of 45-65 m² has noticeably increased on the market, since they are most often purchased as an alternative to improve housing conditions or for investment with subsequent leases.
What affects the price
The formation of prices in the business class segment is determined by a complex of factors:
- location. The closer to the center, to large parks, schools and metro — the higher the price.
- The name of the developer. Reliable developers with a good reputation can set higher prices thanks to customer trust.
- The level of readiness. Apartments at the pits of the foundation are 10–20% cheaper than ready -made housing.
- Architectural and engineering solutions. A unique project, design finishing of public places, panoramic glazing, facades with natural materials — all this adds cost.
- Corps and infrastructure. It is important not only the LCD itself, but also the proximity to business centers, schools, medical facilities, and public transport.
- Additional services. The ability to order a finish, connection to digital platforms, the availability of own service companies.
Investment potential and demand
Business class housing in Moscow retains investment attractiveness due to stable demand. According to analysts, from the moment of start of sales to the commissioning of the object, prices for business quarters can increase by 20–35%, especially in locations with a limited number of plots for new construction.
For example, in the Mosfilmovskaya area, where already formed residential quarters prevail, developers seek to use each available site as efficiently as possible, which stimulates interest in new projects in this zone.
In addition, a business class is actively seen as an alternative to rental. The owners of such apartments most often hand over them with a full package of service and high -quality finishes, and tenants choose such offers as a compromise between comfort and price.
