Construction companies of St. Petersburg and the Leningrad region: reviews, list, rating, contacts

Today, many customers are interested not only in the quality of their homes and their comfort, but also in the reliability of the construction company that sells them. This is understandable, because the "hard-earned" savings invested in real estate are not a guarantee that the advantages described by the developer actually take place. It is especially important to find out as much as possible about the seller before making a deal in megacities such as St. Petersburg or Moscow, where housing prices are simply “sky-high”.

How, then, to determine who can be trusted and who not? In fact, everything is simple, there are criteria by which it is easy to choose a leader among construction companies. St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Region are famous for large-scale developments, and in order to choose one, the “same one” from the huge number of companies participating in them, attention should be paid to their rating.

How to choose a developer

So, what should a client pay attention to when choosing who to buy an apartment in a new building from? When it comes to construction companies in St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Region, the criteria may be as follows:

Popularity (fame). Maybe this will seem strange, because often people perceive advertising negatively, but large construction companies offering their projects through the media, in this case, are a pleasant exception. It is unlikely that a reputable construction company in St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Region will want to be involved in a scandal with defrauded customers. Therefore, the more often the name of the company is heard, the more likely it is to be “pure”.
Studying information about the construction company and existing reviews about it. Of course, in the search you can come across inadequate responses, such as “they are all thieves, because I think so”, but it is important to pay attention to what people write about specific objects of the company. If the company changed its name, although its age is nothing, then this should make you think and cause you to get to the bottom of the change.
A trip to the office of the company, and even more so a visit to the building under construction, will not hurt. At the same time, employees are required to present to the future client copies of permits for construction.
Consultation with the sales manager of the selected construction company in St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Region should clarify the pricing policy of the company. The client also has the right to receive a detailed explanation under what conditions the cost of square meters can change already at the stage of building construction.

These are the main criteria, but not all. It will not be superfluous to consult with a lawyer who has the right to officially request construction documentation and investment schemes in it.

Another way to find out who is the leader among the construction companies in St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Region is by rating firms. Let's get acquainted with those who are in the "golden" list.

List of construction companies

How is it determined who is the leader in the real estate construction market and who is not? In fact, this is done by special rating agencies, but consumer reviews also play an important role. The following companies are included in the list of the best in the list of construction companies of St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Region:

Naturally, there are many more developers in the city, and perhaps they are almost all reliable, but it is these companies that occupy a significant share in the volume of commissioned housing.

Three leaders

Consider the construction companies of St. Petersburg and the Leningrad region, included in the TOP of the best firms in the city. The three leaders are:

Setl City. The company has been operating since 2000 and today its share in the volume of construction in the city and the region is 14%. In total, the company delivered 270, 000 m2 in St. Petersburg, and 279, 000 m2 in the region.

These are clear leaders among the construction companies of St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Region. Reviews about them are mostly positive.

Seven Suns Development

This company takes an honorable 4th place in the ranking of reliable construction companies in the city.

Seven Suns Development has a 5% share in the volume of commissioned real estate, but the company's portfolio is impressive. Only in St. Petersburg she erected such housing estates as “The Bright World”, “I am Romantic”, “Oh, Youth” and others. The company is famous for implementing projects of comfortable and reasonably priced housing in a residential complex with developed infrastructure in St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Region. Contacts of the construction company in St. Petersburg - st. Leo Tolstoy, 9.

Fifth place in the ranking

Policy Group is a fairly young company (founding in 2010), but its share in the total volume of commissioned housing is 4%. The company submits its projects ("Australian Quarter", "Amber" and others) according to the established plan, which earned thanks and positive feedback from its customers. The highlight of the LCD of this company is the landscaping of the court territory and the construction of the necessary infrastructure. The cost of square meters corresponds to the price of the "economy" category. Office address - St. Petersburg, pl. Constitution, 1.

BFA-Development and the Baltic Pearl

These firms are sixth and seventh in the list of reliable construction companies, although the second is the brainchild created by several large Shanghai corporations.

“BFA-Development” as a developer entered the real estate market only in 2011, today its share in the volume of housing commissioned is 3%. The main objects of the company are large housing estates of the “economy class” or “comfort” category, but it does not refuse single buildings. An example of a company’s project is ZhK “On Grebetskoy”, which consists of one house with a different number of floors. The office address of the company is St. Petersburg, ul. Uprising, 19, lit. A.

The Baltic Pearl entered the city’s construction market in 2005. This company is on par with the share of volume in rented housing as described above, but it has slightly more projects. Famous “creations” of the company include housing estates:

“Pearl Symphony” (2010), delivered according to the deadlines.
In the same year, a project called “Pearl Premiere” was commissioned a little earlier than scheduled.
"Pearl Frigate" was commissioned in 2016.
The Duderhof Club was also commissioned in 2016 on time.
Next in line are Pearl Coast (2019) and Pearl Riviera (project under development).

The cost per square meter of housing from this developer cannot be called affordable, but it is constantly in demand. This is due to the fact that the company is building housing estates in ecologically clean areas in the immediate vicinity of the Gulf of Finland. Office Address: St. Petersburg, ul. Efimova, 4 A.

Meridian Development and RosStroyInvest

The first of the presented developers announced itself only in 2011, but it is he who owns 11 hectares of the territory of the Petmol plant, which is currently undergoing the grand construction of the Four Seasons project. Meridian Development implements in it 4 high-rise buildings of the comfort category. Company office address: St. Petersburg, Moskovsky Prospect, 65 T.

RosStroyInvest was established in 2001, and its main activity is unfolding in the suburbs of St. Petersburg. The company works exclusively on its own projects and today is known for having delivered 100% of its facilities on time. Office address: St. Petersburg, pr. T Dobrolyubova, 17.
