Three reasons to choose Sweden
- Europe’s fourth-largest investment market
- High transparency, low costs for transferring asset
- A hot-spot for green buildings and leisure property
A mature and liquid property market
Sweden has been a long time favorite for cross-border investment. An investor-friendly and efficient business environment, with professional participants in all steps of the investment process, has contributed to making Sweden the fourth-largest investment market in a five year period to 2009. National institutional investors and private investors ensure high liquidity in the major markets even in difficult times of the cycle.
The Swedish property market offers outstanding transparency, due to openness in public property record, a highly-evolved legal system and an abundance of market information. Market transparency, the reliability of the legal system and common use of standardized documentation concur to reducing transactions costs.
