Interim Report 1 January - 30 June 2016
“There is currently a high pace in the property sector. Activity in the transaction market continues to be high and the rental market is strong. Our renegotiations during the period have been positive and rental income for comparable portfolio increased by 4.5 per cent. Net letting for the second quarter amounted to as much as SEK 70 million where our largest letting is to Järfälla municipality in Bas Barkarby,” comments Atrium Ljungberg’s CEO Annica Ånäs.
“We have established ourselves in a new subsidiary market by acquiring a large office property in Sundbyberg, a municipality that grows and plans for several large development projects. We want to be a part of the development of the area and hope that we can expand there in the future,” concludes Annica Ånäs.
