"We had a positive first half and expect to make good progress in the time to

come.

"Sales in the first half were the best for several years, the sales ratio for

homes under construction is high, and the need for new homes in our core areas

will be substantial.

where we could be starting sales for a large Pluss project as early as 2022."

At 30 June, Selvaag Bolig had a net of 1 371 homes under construction with a
