Vladivostok

The pearl of the Far East

Sakhalin

The island of magic and wonder

St. Petersburg, Irkutsk — Baikal Novosibirsk, and other 77 regions Investment of 25 million RUB ($270,000)

An apartment in the historical center of the imperial capital St. Petersburg or a
house on the shore of Lake Baikal?

What about a ski lodge in the Caucasus mountains? Maybe a
condo in the largest city in Siberia — Novosibirsk? All of that is certainly possible.

The prices for real estate are “on average” cheaper
than Moscow and as low as in the Far East regions. There are also plenty of “satellite” cities close to Moscow and St. Petersburg such as
historical city Nizhniy Novgorod that could be the perfect combination of the
calm of a smaller city and proximity to the culture, business, and energy of the capitals.
