Top 10 most reliable developers of St. Petersburg

10 FSK Leader

Opens the ranking of the best FSK Leader, which offers both cheap and luxury housing. The company attracts customers with modern quarters, which are distinguished by a large green area, good infrastructure and transport accessibility. The houses have panoramic windows, ventilated facades, monolithic construction. More than 25 objects were commissioned, prices range from 1.5 to 20 million rubles. Officially, everything is delivered on time, although the keys are transferred half a year later. There are a lot of clauses in the agreement that will block the firm in case of problems.

Buyers in a review warned that from the time of commissioning and before the signing of the act of receiving the cost of the house is paid by the owner of the apartment. This means that within six months the client will bear the cost of housing, in which you can not enter. Finishing suffers, there are holes in the ceiling and pipes, cracked doors. The company promises a protected area, but anyone can pass. Although for all the problems buyers recommend the company, because in the end everything is settled, the sites are in good condition.

9 Glavstroy SPB

Glavstroy SPB got a place in the top thanks to the many buildings handed over. The company is a member of the Basic Element Association and is building middle-class residential buildings. During the construction, double-glazed windows are installed, insulation, brick-monolithic technology is used. The site has many awards, including reliability and quality. In the free access is the project documentation, characteristics of apartments, cost. Manual often appears in the media. Prices range from 2.5 to 7 million rubles.

According to the reviews, it is clear that houses are being rented, real estate investors receive apartments. However, many promises are not kept. The construction of kindergartens and schools is delayed. Green areas are a forest where workers dump rubbish. Low-rise buildings turned into skyscrapers.Many buyers do not take the apartment from the first time, waiting for the elimination of deficiencies for several months. Quality finish suffers, it is recommended to do the repair yourself. Parking spaces are very few.

8 Policy Group

One of the best was the Polis Group, which won several awards for a great start on the market. Opened in 2014, the company has already managed to pass 770 thousand square meters. meters She has more than 3 thousand places in kindergartens and schools. The site contains all the documents on completed and under construction houses. In the open access are project declarations with the names of managers. Although the latest information is very small. Polis Group has established relationships with the best banks, offering mortgage lending. Cameras are installed on each object, online broadcasts are conducted. Popular LCDs are the Polis on the Commandant and the Polis on the Neva, the construction of ParkLand is ending.

It is possible to buy apartments at a discount of 20%, making a 100% prepayment. However, finishing materials leave much to be desired. The cheapest Chinese brands are used, on which dents and imprints remain. Lifts often do not work, and the houses are high. Many have problems with ventilation. Playgrounds are placed near the roads, lighting is minimal. The management company is owned by Polis Group, but in no hurry to solve problems. It is necessary to pay the apartment, the interest of the company is lost.

7 Lenstroytrest

Lenstroytrest appeared in the top due to the decent quality of monolithic, frame and panel housing. The company uses its own materials, which it produces at Gatchina SSK. The cost varies from 1 700 000 to 11 million rubles. The site boasts a whole list of awards for the reliability and quality of not only apartments, but also the surrounding areas. The company prefers the Scandinavian style, the most popular projects are IQGatchina, Yutteri and New Tone.

Buyers in a review warned that the apartments are located in the suburbs of St. Petersburg, it is inconvenient to get to the city. The company forgets about promises to build kindergartens and shops. But well settles green areas, sports and playgrounds. There are even bike lanes and places for walking dogs. However, we did not put the company higher in the rating because of several trials. The contract says that the construction of LST Gatchina is in the construction, although the money goes to Lenstroytrest. As a result, the responsibility is borne by the first company, which has no funds in its account. Courts buyers win, but do not receive money. It is recommended to be careful and not to acquire housing in the initial stages of construction.

6 L1 SK №1

We could not help but call L1 SK No. 1 a bona fide one, since after several decades of work, the company passed over 200 houses. Many projects have a unique architecture for St. Petersburg, for example, LCD Emerald Isle, Amber Coast, Imperial. Since 2012, the developer has handed over the keys to 6,700 apartments, there were no serious delays. At the same time, 4-5 complexes are being built, the last one was the LCD Marshal.

Buyers say the company is reliable, but you need to follow the work. Apartments are occupied by different teams, so the quality of finish varies in the rooms. The process moves slowly, but does not freeze completely. There are regular problems with the supply of heating, it takes up to six months between commissioning and receiving the keys. There are no serious shoals, but there are many comments on the finish. It is recommended to take without it. Not all workers observe the regime, sometimes they make noise late in the evening or early in the morning. Social facilities are being built very slowly, there are no kindergartens and schools in new areas.

5 Northern city

One of the most conscientious we considered the Northern city, which appeared in 1993 in the RBI group. The company builds a home comfort class, focusing on ecology and convenience. There are apartments in St. Petersburg and the region. The company equips "cities in the city", which have a developed infrastructure: social institutions, sports fields, parking lots, shops and parks. In 2017, the organization won the Consumer Confidence award. We were somewhat embarrassed by a not very informative site, there is not enough information about objects, the number of apartments, their area. But the most popular projects are named: "House on the Bend of the Neva", Mistola Hills and "Time House at Moscow".

In 2017-2018, the developer had problems with the deadlines, but they were solved in 6 months. At the same time, in a hurry, the company made mistakes in its layout: there are holes in the walls, gaps in the pipes, concrete structures and curves. Many refused to sign a reception agreement and waited a few more months. The company does not report on the construction progress, ignores questions or sends a contract to read. Their social networks are closed to comment. The documents have items that allow circumventing the FZ-214. In general, it is safest to acquire apartments without finishing in the final stages of construction.

4 Setl city

One of the most reliable we considered Setl City, which appeared in St. Petersburg in 1994, realizing property in all price segments. The choice presented apartments comfort-, business class, there are elite options in premium areas. The company’s portfolio includes 200 residential properties, the area is ennobled with park zones and entertainment areas. Kindergartens and parking lots are under construction. The company cooperates with the best banks in the country, offering a profitable mortgage. The cost of apartments varies from 2 to 90 million. Pleases stable financial growth and increased sales.

Buyers do not recommend overpaying for "species" housing on the upper floors, as the layout of the area will not let you enjoy nature or the river. But the site is broadcast from the construction site. The company has already experienced several crises, surrendering everything at home. There were delays, but big scandals were avoided. When buying a turnkey finish, it is important to carefully check everything, the apartment is rarely taken from the first time. For example, there is a bloated laminate, a curved tile in the bathroom, and scratched glass. Unfortunately, plumbing, doors and windows are made of cheap materials, even in the comfort class homes.

3 Reference

Standard has earned the title of a bona fide developer due to an integrated approach to the construction of buildings. The company includes 65 firms engaged in the development, design, preparation, materials, construction and operation. The standard is focused on the comfort and business class housing, from the vivid examples we can mention the complex "Botany". The site regularly publishes financial data, there is information about the management. We liked that the project declarations and their changes were posted. The “Bulletin of construction” is updated monthly, where the course of work is described in the pictures. In addition to the site, the company regularly updates data in social networks and Youtube.

According to reviews it is clear that the best apartments are sold without finishing. There are a lot of jambs, and after taking housing they will not be corrected. From the first time it is difficult to see all the errors, so many had to correct them on their own. Finishing materials are used the cheapest, as a result, it is impossible to save money on repairs. But happy with the steady growth of the developer, sales increase annually by 20% -30%. Some objects were handed over under the brand name "Etalon-Invest" and "LenSpetsSMU", but this is the same company.

2 CDS

At a decent place in the top, we put the VAC, which opened in 1999 and regularly donates new projects. During this time, the company has built several hundred houses.In 2018, the CDS sold apartments in 18 complexes, most of which have a good infrastructure. The developer does not forget about kindergartens, clinics and schools. The company focuses on economical housing and cooperates with all popular banks, offering more than 50 programs. The firm welcomes maternal capital and military mortgage.

Buyers are talking about a decent finish from the developer, no serious complaints. The materials are simple and budget. However, the company several times seriously disrupted terms, forcing buyers to be nervous. There are problems with parking zones, the house of 600 apartments may have 60 places for cars. As a result, neighboring courtyards, parks and playgrounds are clogged. It is important to note that prices are listed on the site with 100% lump sum payment. Under any other conditions, they are not so profitable, the final cost can be an unpleasant surprise.

1 YIT St. Petersburg

The best developer, we considered YIT St. Petersburg, which produced about 200 objects. The main activities are the buildings of comfort and business class, design of the adjacent territory. In 2017, the company won several competitions for quality of work and reliability. It is possible to take a mortgage, pay in installments or get a discount on full payment. Homes pass on time, pass the keys quickly. Buyers have claims for finishing, but the jambs are much smaller than others. The walls are smooth, quality materials. The company has the right to change the area of ​​the apartment by 1 meter, as stated in the contract.

Buyers warn that you need to be careful with the repair from the developer. The contract spelled analogs of materials that are worse than the original quality. Walls and communications are "smart", so you should not drill and hammer nails without preparation. The houses are made well, the surrounding area is well-groomed, there are green areas. The company observes the mode of noisy work, does not bother at night. However, there are always not enough parking places, this is a typical problem for St. Petersburg.
