About a dozen suites have sold since Jukebox launched its post-completion sales campaign in mid-September, highlighting that demand for move-in ready new-build homes is an indicator that this under-supplied product in Victoria should garner more attention from developers and project financiers.
The newly completed Jukebox condominium at 1029 View Street is garnering attention for its move-in ready new-build residences in a real-estate market accustomed to pre-sale offerings for new homes.
