The result is not surprising, as Riga\u2019s time seems to have arrived,\u201d comments Kristjan-Thor V\u00e4hi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>V\u00e4hi notes that while prices for new developments in Riga are still lower, the gap between the two countries is narrowing. \u201cEverything follows a familiar pattern \u2013 initially, sales move faster in so-called budget developments, but interest in higher-priced projects is also growing,\u201d says V\u00e4hi, who adds that compared to Tallinn, Riga currently attracts more buyers of investment apartments due to today&#8217;s prices and loan interest rates. \u201cIn our higher-end development, Skanstes Rezidences, several apartments have been purchased by Estonian investors, who also seem to believe in the market\u2019s growth potential. There has also been interest in investing in the Vitolu Parks residential area,\u201d V\u00e4hi gives as examples.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"If until now, the new development market in Riga has clearly lagged behind Tallinn and Vilnius in terms of selection, transaction volume, and prices, this year a change is expected, confirms Kristjan-Thor V\u00e4hi, the head of Invego, a company developing large residential areas in both Latvia and Estonia.
