SKVL’s forecast for housing sales in 20258.1.2025 06:00:00 EET | Press release
Finland’s largest and oldest 79-year-old network of private real estate agents SKVL published its first forecast for 2025. ”The market picks up speed in the early part of the year after a quiet period typical at the turn of the year, and expectations towards spring are cautiously positive,” comments Jussi Mannerberg, President and CEO of SKVL. ”The worrying labor market situation in Finland, the geopolitical situation and the resulting uncertainty in consumer confidence, as well as uncertainty about access to finance, continue to make purchasing decisions,” he continues. ”However, now is a good time for both buyers and sellers to change apartments once the price development has levelled off and interest rates are starting to reach a reasonable level,” Mannerberg emphasizes.
