Property developer Prime Kapital has delivered four out of five apartment buildings in its first residential project in Bucharest. The company has invested €47.8 million in the project that will feature 458 apartments. 

The third and final stage of the Hron Residence project in Zvolen, Slovakia, is now starting to be built. Arkon, the developer of the €15 million project, has announced the final stage launch on its social media.

Investment group DRFG has started to build a new apartment complex in Mladá Boleslav in Michalovice. As part of the project, called Green, an apartment building with more than a hundred apartments, garages and a large garden with a water reservoir will be built within two years. The market value of the project is CZK 634.6 million (€25.9 million), according to DRFG spokeswoman Monika Brichtová.

The investment volumes in Romanian residential projects reached 4.6 billion lei (€933.5 million) in the first quarter of 2022, which was up 50% compared to the same period of last year, according to a report by real estate consultancy Colliers.

American-owned company Bucharest Properties REIT has started the development of a new block with 55 apartments for rent in the Vitan Estates residential project in Bucharest.  

Another apartment building inspired by Scandinavian architecture has been launched in Prague by the developer YIT.  The twelve-storey building with 47 apartments will be built near metro line C's Opatov station. It should be completed within two years, the developer informed.

One of the tallest buildings in Prague will disappear. The broadcasting tower of the Central Telecommunications Building (Ústřední telekomunikační budova) in Prague's Žižkov district will be demolished in January 2023, including the adjacent buildings. The demolition work is being prepared by the developer Central Group, which owns the entire technology complex in Olšanská Street and is now preparing a residential project there. The current design of the 100-metre towers with apartments by architect Eva Jiřičná has not yet been approved by the city, writes E15.cz.

In the second quarter of this year, a total of 9,200 new apartments were sold in the six largest markets, 11.7% less than in the previous quarter and as much as 53% down on the same period in 2021. The drop in sales is mainly due to higher mortgage interest rates and tighter credit rating regulations. As shown in the JLL report which summarises the previous quarter, despite the reduced interest in purchasing flats in the market, housing prices continued to rise.

Strabag will build the first residential building of Speedwell’s mixed-use scheme Paltim in Timișoara and the company has been selected as the general contractor of the project. 

Considering how Prague and its population will grow in the next few years, developer Central Group is planning schools and kindergartens. In its Nová Ruzyně project, it plans to build housing for more than 6,600 people and incorporate kindergartens directly into residential buildings. The developer plans to start construction within two years, writes the daily E15.
