Patai has two apartments in the Anjou Residence in the Castle District, one of 121m2 and another of 170m2. It is not known which one Matolcsy is using.

A spacious penthouse at the Residence was selling for more than Ft 2 billion a few years ago. The monthly rent for a 170m2 luxury apartment was €3,600, excluding the monthly expenses of around €400.

The Anjou Residence, guarded by a 24-hour security service, features a wine cellar, a sauna, a swimming pool and a gym.

Népszabadság made numerous attempts to reach both Matolcsy and Patai for comment, but received no response.
