ABOUT KEYDATA ALBANIA
Keydata Albania is the first real estate private index in Albania, a product offered by Çelësi sh.p.k with the support of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD).
Gazeta Çelësi, as the largest market of economic transactions, since its start in 1998 until the end of 2018, has published about 8,100,000 announcements, 65% of which are related to the real estate market. This 20-year experience and unique Albanian database has been made available to KeyData Albania in order to extract the index and important statistics for the real estate market.
