About the interpretation of the average estimates

The Norwegian rental market is characterised by large variations in rents due to geography, physical unit attributes, relations between tenants and landlords and period of tenancy. The average estimates must therefore be treated with some caution. It is also important to notice that average rent levels are not directly comparable between years. The reason is that each annual survey is based on unique samples that may differ according to variables that are important for the rent level.

 

Annual numbers are projected each quarter based on the index for actual rentals paid by tenants in the Consumer Price Index.
