News Article: Construction and Housing Commissioning Decline in Tomsk Region

In the first seven months of 2025, the Tomsk region has seen a significant decrease in both construction work and housing commissioning when compared to the same period last year. According to a report by the Telegram channel of the regional Union of Builders, the total cost of construction work performed from January to July 2025 stands at 43.7 billion rubles, which is 92.6% of the level recorded for the same period in 2024.

The decrease in housing commissioning and individual housing construction (IHC) was particularly notable. The total housing commissioned in the Tomsk region for the same period last year was higher, with a total of 155,000 square meters commissioned compared to 112,100 square meters in 2025, marking a decrease of 40.8%. Similarly, IHC volumes decreased by 25.6% year-on-year.

The majority of the housing commissioned in July 2025 falls under IHC, with a volume of 22,700 square meters. However, the cost of construction work performed in July 2025 is not provided. The volume of IHC construction in July 2025 and the cost of IHC construction from January to July 2025 are also unavailable.

The decrease in IHC construction volume in July 2025 compared to July 2023 is not provided either. It's worth noting that the decrease in housing commissioning and IHC construction was significant, with year-on-year decreases of 40.8% and 25.6% respectively.

Interestingly, the volume of commissioned housing in July 2025 is 41% less than in July 2023. There are no search results providing information about the builders or developers who realized the remaining 43,900 square meters of residential space (excluding single-family homes) in the Tomsk district from January to July 2025.

As the construction and housing market continues to evolve in the Tomsk region, it will be interesting to see how these trends develop in the coming months. The decline in construction and housing commissioning observed so far in 2025 presents a challenge for the region's builders and developers, and it remains to be seen how they will adapt to these changing circumstances.
