Nikas Safronov spoke in an interview about the troubles surrounding their real estate in Turkey. The artist received units there and purchased seven apartments intended for his sons and brother. He described the dwelling as a source of ongoing distress, ultimately deciding to put it on the market again. Safronov explained that vagrants had moved into the property, gaining access by breaking in and occupying the space for a period of time.
Moving out proved difficult. Safronov noted that local police did not respond to his complaints, which made the eviction process all the more challenging. He reported having to compensate the homeless occupants to vacate the premises and remove their belongings. The artist also mentioned that the properties suffered looting during the occupancy, intensifying the sense of violation and loss.
Safronov also faced scrutiny over alleged illegal real estate construction connected to the house, and it was later reported that the property had been robbed on multiple occasions. The combination of legal troubles and theft contributed to a sense of caution about further development on the site.
Reflecting on the situation, Safronov admitted that the ongoing trouble has dampened any inclination to pursue further building projects. He said he remains steadfast for his children and for Nikolai Nikolaevich Drozdov, whom he promised to invite to a future housewarming. He added that without such family commitments, the land would likely have been sold long ago.
In a broader talk about his experiences in the entertainment world, Safronov also touched on his thoughts about others in the industry, including public figures like Alexander Gradsky. The remarks underscored a perspective shaped by personal and professional challenges, including the complexity of managing property and reputational concerns in the public eye.
