Appraisers Mark-Down
Despite the assurance of Regional Development Minister Dmitry Kozak, residents of Sochi won’t have big numbers of appraisers to evaluate their land and houses, with which they will part because of the Olympic construction. The commission of Olimpstroy has chosen four appraisers instead of the promised 30, and the biggest companies didn’t bid in the tender at all.
Government-controlled Olimpstroy Corp. made public yesterday the April 24 resolution of the tender commission to choose appraisers for the land and houses of the locals to be seized for constructing Olympic facilities. Ex-mayor of Sochi Viktor Kolodyazhny is today’s chief of Olimpstroy (its former head Semyon Vainshtok had to resign April 22).
Only four companies – Economic and Legal Expertise Center (Sochi), ABM Partner (Moscow), Institute of Property Evaluation and Management of Kuban State Technological Institute (Krasnodar) and United Enterprise for Evaluation and Expertise of Special Installations and Investments (Spetsotsenka, Moscow) - were sanctioned to progress to the tender of April 24. In the end, two Moscow companies and two regional ones were acknowledged successful bidders, while another 34 companies had been turned down a week ago.
Olimpstroy neither discloses the list of 34 losers nor provides any details about the tariff rates offered by appraisers. The winners don’t bother to conceal that they have staked on exclusive rights and suggest dividing the Sochi area amid them. So, it appears the locals will hardly have even four companies for the final choice.
