YIT has completed the Koti Libeň residential project in Prague 8, which includes 140 apartments, two studios and one commercial space. The last apartment is currently available for purchase. YIT announced that new residents will be able to move in in the second quarter of this year.
During the fifteen years YIT has been present in the Czech market, the company has seen a significant change in the behaviour of its clients, their demands and its emphasis on high quality. If we add to this the recent rise in energy and building materials prices, we are motivated to look for new materials with minimal environmental impact, says Dana Bartoňová, Sales Director of YIT Stavo in an interview with Property Forum.
