“The rise in prices for the resale of homes is surprisingly strong. This is an expression of high activity and stable demand, but can also be a correction after a slightly weaker development in December,” CEO of OBOS, Daniel Kjørberg Siraj comments.

In January, 668 changes of ownership were made in OBOS associated properties, compared to 373 in December of last year.
