Great figures. Nearly 7 billion dollars in construction works on year-base in 2019. Really good!
Yes, as long as people actually use the new construction. There are very nice…..but empty…buildings all over Ukraine. Some think this is a way to hide money but I’m not sure.
When nobody rents it, or buys it, where is the profit?
This is good, bu even better would be the creation of housing that every citizen can afford, including the replacement of the old Soviet apartment blocks that are always cold. The correct materials being used with modern construction methods and superior insulation is vital for the future.
