Omul care a cumpărat „jumătate din Lugano”. Povestea românului care investește în centrul orașului elvețian

A Romanian entrepreneur, Cătălin Iordăchescu, has become a significant property owner in Lugano, Switzerland, acquiring around 100 apartments and notable buildings. His investments have sparked discussions about the future of housing in the city center. Iordăchescu, who moved to Switzerland in 2018, initially started his business in currency exchange in Romania. He claims most of his properties are rented long-term, although some are used for short-term rentals. His acquisitions have raised concerns among locals about rising rents and the potential transformation of residential spaces into tourist accommodations. Iordăchescu believes his investments will enhance the area, despite local worries about affordability.
