For this, it is important to find a balance between financial demand and supply in the housing and services market. In this matter, according to the President of Tatarstan, the priority is the development of agglomerations. The formation of the Kazan, Kama and, in the future, the Almetyevsk agglomerations is provided for by the Strategy-2030. “We need to plan our work based on new opportunities.
