Corem CEO Sees Property Market Turnaround After Billion-Krona Sale

Rutger Arnhult, CEO of real estate company Corem, anticipates a market turnaround, describing the current climate as a "sign of spring." This optimism stems from Corem's recent successful sale of properties valued in the billions of kronor. The transaction concluded at a price slightly exceeding their booked value. This significant sale underpins Arnhult's confidence in the property market's recovery, serving as a concrete indicator of a positive sector shift for the CEO. Speaking to Di TV, Arnhult also criticized the communication practices of property companies regarding sales. He deemed the common practice of highlighting sales made precisely at book value as "pathetic," asserting that any other outcome would be unusual. While Arnhult elaborated on the underlying reasons for this phenomenon, further details of his explanation were not provided in the article.
