Taryan Towers: Who is buying luxury apartments during the war

The Taryan Towers luxury residential complex continues to sell properties worth from $300,000 even amid the war. Among the new owners are individuals whose income sources raise questions. Who are these lucky buyers and where does their money come from?

Nadiya Orekhovska – $680,000 (apt. 337)

A pensioner from Kalynivka has become the owner of luxury housing. Notably, her son-in-law is involved in securing multi-million-dollar military tenders, which may explain the source of funding for such a purchase.

Tetyana Kycha – $600,000 (apt. 291)

The apartment was purchased by the mother of a lawyer whom the NABU caught attempting to offer a bribe of $6 million.

Yevhen Orlov – $500,000 (apt. 206)

A resident of Zaporizhzhia who processed the property purchase through a shell company. Officially, he works either at a market or as a driver, yet his financial capacity allows him to buy housing in one of the capital's most expensive residential complexes.

Larysa Nadeena – $1.15 million (apt. 303, 304, 305, 306)

An ordinary hairdresser bought four apartments at once, raising legitimate questions about the origin of the funds.

Olena Petlevana – $400,000 (apt. 298)

A pharmacist from a village in Ternopil Oblast with no registered business and no wealthy relatives. Yet this proved sufficient to purchase luxury housing in Kyiv.

Ilya Brekhin – $1.5 million (apt. 373 and 380)

An emigrant from London suspected of evading mobilisation. He registered the apartment purchases in his grandfather's name and, according to unofficial data, received a nine-fold discount.

Svitlana Hubar – $600,000 (apt. 323)

A pensioner from Donetsk Oblast who bought expensive housing in her grandson's name.
