As we have analyzed on other occasions, the
construction business has decreased its number of constructions. Some of the
reasons for this are the economic uncertainty the country is going through and
the difficulty in getting dollar bills. In addition, there is another issue
which is the restriction over imports in the country.
Due to the measures imposed by the
government which restrict imports, there has been a shortage (and lack) of many
articles and materials necessary for the construction of new buildings and
houses.
The ones that have suffered most are the
VIP constructions, i.e. the most
exclusive ones. These types of constructions require special materials that you
cannot get in the country, which means they need to be brought from other
places. According to a consultant from Abeceb.com, “the population in possession
of a higher purchasing power is the one that keeps the construction business
moving, and at the same time, it is the one that demands a higher amount of
imported materials when referring to the constructions of houses.”
In order to show the situation the country
is going throw, here is an example: many contracts (used to finance
constructions) specify on their clauses that some of the condition will be met
only if the government allows the import of the necessary materials (when
referring to the type and TRADE of the products).
So, as you can see, it is a fact: the
restriction over the import of construction material influences directly on the
business, and the specialists are on the alert, in order to see how the
situation continues, so as to prevent problems in advance.
