Realia, a provider of housing and real estate management services throughout Finland, and the technology company Digita Oy have agreed to cooperate to enable the best mobile connections for the properties managed by Realia. Within the framework of Digita and Realia’s cooperation, Realia will offer its customers a 5G base station location management service implemented through Digita in the future.

The importance of digital infrastructure is emphasised as the requirements for housing comfort and functioning data connections increase. Smart properties are becoming more common and the traffic volume of wireless network connections used in real estate is increasing dramatically. Ensuring the quality and capacity of mobile network connections requires a comprehensive base station network. In a densely built urban environment, base stations are often located in buildings and on the roofs of buildings.

“We at Realia see the opportunities provided by digitalisation, but also its requirements for real estate. Together with Digita, we want to ensure the best possible mobile connections for our customers’ properties. Functioning data connections are a basic prerequisite for modern housing as remote work becomes more common and the number of services available online increases”, says Yaron Nadbornik, Chief Procurement Officer at Realia.

“We are very pleased with the cooperation we are starting with Realia. Thanks to it, we can improve the provision of high-quality digital infrastructure to mobile carriers and other mobile network builders”, says Digita COO Markus Ala-Hautala.
