Profile
Provides verified housing price statistics sourced directly from real estate broker transactions.
Svensk Mäklarstatistik is Sweden's sole provider of comprehensive residential property statistics based on actual final sale prices, regardless of whether the property was publicly listed. Founded in collaboration with Sweden's real estate agents, the company aggregates contract data directly from brokerages' transaction systems, which is then quality-checked by Statistics Sweden (SCB) to produce reliable market reports. As of June 2026, the platform processes data from 1,500 reporting brokerages nationwide, tracking metrics like average apartment size (68 sqm) and villa sales (58,300 sold in the past 12 months).
The company faced regulatory scrutiny in early 2023 when Sweden's Competition Authority temporarily intervened, though the case was later dismissed. Recent monthly reports highlight rising prices for both condominiums (+0.3% month-over-month) and villas (+1.2%) across Sweden, with central Stockholm showing the strongest annual growth at nearly +8%.
