Selvaag Bolig ASA - good sales and more homes under construction
Selvaag Bolig sold 277 homes with a total value of NOK 1.13 billion during the
third quarter of 2016. The company had 1 464 units under construction at 30
September.
"Our products are well received by the market, and due to substantial sales we
have initiated the construction of 223 homes," comments CEO Baard Schumann.
"We take a positive view of future market developments, and are offering new
residential properties for sale as quickly as we can. Demand in Greater Oslo is
particularly high because of urbanisation and insufficient housing construction.
The market in the Stavanger area is showing signs of improvement. We think this
trend will continue."
The average price per home for the quarter was NOK 4.1 million, compared with
NOK 3.6 million in the corresponding period of last year.
Construction starts totalled 223 units during the quarter, 103 homes were
completed, and 129 were delivered to the buyer. Selvaag Bolig had 1 464 homes
under construction at 30 September, while 48 completed units remained to be
sold.
Gross sales during the quarter, including joint venture projects, came to 298
homes.
The company sold 883 residential units with an overall value of NOK 3.6 billion
during the first nine months of the year. It started the building of 706 homes
during this period, completed 581 and delivered 615. Gross sales for January-
September came to 1 000 homes.
During the third quarter of 2015, Selvaag Bolig sold 208 homes with an overall
value of NOK 750 million.
