(ČIA) According to Penta Real Estate, demand for residential housing and real estate as an investment grew enormously in 2021. The market has put pressure on quick investments before prices rise even higher. Penta's sales manager Jan Kalaš said that interest in smaller flats still prevails, reaching about half to 60% of sales. With the move to work from home, people are also more concerned with how to build an office at home. In the case of commercial real estate, in addition to ecology, the element of coworking was also reflected in the requirements of tenants. Commercial project lease manager Miloš Kocián added that covid had accelerated the use of modern technologies and smart solutions.
