BUCHAREST, Romania, Aug. 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- One United Properties (BVB: ONE), the leading Romanian green developer of residential, mixed-use, and office real estate, reports residential sales and pre-sales of 123.3 million euros in the first half of 2024.

"Since our IPO three years ago, One United Properties has consistently delivered strong results quarter after quarter. The first half of 2024 continues this trend, marking another period of solid growth for both our residential and office divisions. To meet the increasing demand for our high-quality homes, we began pre-sales for the second phase of our landmark development, One Lake District, where our sales team sold 165 units within just one month. What stands out in the first half of 2024 is the consistent sales across all our targeted sub-segments – premium, high-end, and luxury – spanning both completed developments and those still under construction. In a market where supply has been declining year-on-year, our ability to meet broad market demand with the highest-quality products has set us apart, enabling us to continue our rapid growth and maintain our leading position," said Victor Capitanu, co-CEO of One United Properties.

Amounts to be received under contracts concluded with customers as of June 30th, 2024, will total 331 million euros in additional cash by 2026. An additional 79 million euros were collected in H1 2024 alone.

The commercial division of One United Properties continued to expand, with the headline rent for the rental portfolio reaching 14 million euros in H1 2024, a 21% increase compared to H1 2023.
