2006 · The Beginning
Kategora’s first projects emerged in 2006 in Hungary and Poland, identified through our opportunity analyses as ideal markets for achieving maximum profitability for our investors. These initial steps helped successfully test the innovative concepts that would later become the foundations of Kategora: flexible accommodations with spacious common areas, design-centric, and adaptable to various scenarios. Always with a focus on creating a sustainable legacy.
Twenty years ago, this model was neither common nor known as the Flex Living that everyone talks about today. But at Kategora, we recognized the opportunity, innovated, and leveraged the market to become what we are today. That’s right: if you can anticipate, you can innovate.
Still, we knew investors need their extra peace of mind, especially when working with new concepts. So we developed a software platform that allowed them to see how their investment was yielding at all times.
This platform is called QDEA and allows real-time observation of several parameters of the investment performance such as financial statements and general ledge, and also gathers and serves digitalized copies of every lease agreement, title deeds, and all the other important documents.
Soon after, we got the Price Waterhouse Coopers Spanish New Co Award.
And then 2008 hit. Developers, real estate agents, and hotel operators shipwrecked by the dozens. Thankfully, we were ready.
Remember, if you can anticipate...
Kategora repurposed its tourist apartments and apart-hotels for long-stay accommodation, offering — despite the seriousness of the situation — good returns to investors.
Once the crisis was over, from 2013 on, Kategora returned to the tourism field. Thanks to our ever-versatile assets, we were able to adjust and join the aparthotel market once again, obtaining excellent yields for investors.
Along this path, Kategora obtained the recognition of all the people who placed their trust with us. Today, our community brings together more than 400 investors throughout the world.
Thanks to their support, we continue to develop some of the most avant-garde residential, touristic and hybrid concepts on the market.
As we strive to continue being leaders and a reference in real estate, we made an unequivocal commitment to the sustainability of our buildings — because energy efficiency is both the key to the future and to our business.
