“Last year’s sales reflected the efforts of buyers to protect their savings from inflation and the knowledge that the apartment is a safe asset that, in addition to growing in value, can also generate revenue. Thus, it can be said that the driving force behind the growing demand was private and, increasingly, institutional investors, “said Marcel Soural, Chairman of the Board of Trigema.

In preparation over 130 thousand apartments
