Sweden real estate market is one of the biggest in Scandinavia. Lately, real estate market in Sweden has been experiencing a slow down. The effect of this slow down was much felt in the places like Stockholm and various urban areas. The reason of this slow down was that the demand for rented property and ownership property were not being met sufficiently as there was a dearth of supply.
Apart from this, there is a general assumption among the people of Sweden, that the cost of buying a real estate property is more as compared to renting a particular premise. For this reason, in Sweden, real estate property like condominiums are less popular than rented premises or cooperative buildings. This pattern of popularity can also be attributed to the fact that condominiums have less tax advantages.
Sweden real estate also recognizes a new concept in the real estate sector which is known as multifamily segment ownership. This concept of multifamily ownership is new and was introduced in 1980s. During 80s, Government of Sweden sanctioned loans to the tenants for renovation purposes. The tenant in turn bought the building from the owner.
