AFI Europe has just completed the interiors of sixty rental apartments in the second phase of the AFI Home Kolbenova project in Vysočany, Prague. They are available for immediate occupancy.


The apartment house AFI Home Kolbenova 2 is part of the newly emerging mixed-use district AFI City near the Kolbenova metro station. The courtyard of the building in the shape of the letter "U" is planted with greenery, which is followed by a large park. Future residents can use the services of a 24-hour reception desk and a facility manager ensuring regular maintenance and support in case of minor repairs.

AFI Europe's rental portfolio covered by its own AFI Home brand currently includes almost 900 apartments in three different locations: Karlín, Třebešín and Vysočany. AFI Home Karlín with 172 apartments and the first phase of AFI Home Kolbenova with 313 apartments are currently approximately 90% occupied and full occupancy is expected within a few weeks.

"From now until the end of the summer, we plan to add sixty newly furnished apartments to the market per month. Altogether, there will be 327 units with the possibility of long-term leases," explains Elena Pisotchi, Rental Housing Manager at AFI Europe.
