ЧТО НОВОГО? /WHAT’S NEW?/Millionaires Return to U.S. Real Estate - 21 July 2009.Russian millionaires are returning to the United States property market, lured by distressed sales and the ruble’s rise against the dollar, lawyer Edward Mermelstein said. “The way many look at the United States right now is that it’s a bargain,” said Mermelstein, who has arranged about 300 real estate deals for buyers from the former Soviet Union since 2007. Manhattan apartment prices dropped for the first time since 2002 in the second quarter as the collapse of Lehman Brothers Holdings and Bear Stearns caught up to property owners in the United States’ most expensive urban market. The ruble has rallied about 13 percent against the dollar from this year’s low in February. Mermelstein, 41, closed two purchases and bid for 20 more residential and commercial properties in New York and Miami for Russian and central Asian clients in the past three months, he said. That compares with no deals or offers in January, he said.
