Recall the essence of the problem.
According to the intergovernmental agreement between Moldova and the USA, our country sells the territory of the former Republican Stadium for the construction of a complex of buildings of the US Embassy in the Republic of Moldova.
The U.S. Embassy is obliged to transfer 18 million euros for everything that belongs to the state and 7.5 million euros to compensate private owners of real estate located on the territory of the sports facility. As of today, there are 13 of them.
The Public Property Agency (APS) held a tender to select an appraisal company, the only bidder and winner of which was Eving Grup SRL, 100% owned by Alexandru Paladi.
Eving Grup carried out an evaluation of the property of private owners, which caused some of them dissatisfaction. For example, the company Inco Gratie SRL, which owns the squash club Kangaroo, believes that their property was valued at about 15% of its real market value.
The AGCC carefully analyzed the valuation acts and presented its opinion (Extract from Minutes No. 8 of the meeting of the Commission for Certification of Real Estate Appraisers of December 11, 2025, available from Logos Press).
The expertise was carried out exclusively within the framework of the submitted documents and in accordance with the following normative acts: Law No. 989/2002 on valuation activities, the Provisional Regulation on Real Estate Valuation approved by Government Decision No. 958/2003 in force on the date of valuation, as well as the Valuation Standards approved by AGCC Order No. 21/2025.
The 16 pages further list other misrepresentations, deviations from legislation and other irregularities committed in the process of drafting the valuation acts. It is noted that each violation made by the appraiser, by a strange coincidence, resulted in a decrease in the value of the property being appraised.
At the same time, in the performance of its duties, the Certification Commission reviews appraisal reports solely from the standpoint of compliance with the real estate appraisal methodology and their compliance with the applicable regulatory framework, without expressing an opinion on the appraised value of the assets subject to appraisal.
The conclusions drawn on the basis of the examination of the two valuation reports are the same: they contain deviations from the regulations and real estate valuation methodology.
