Trevian's autumn market review highlighted that Finland's property sector is witnessing a strong recovery, with investment activity increasing and international interest on the rise. The residential market has become a key driver despite elevated construction costs, while commercial investors are focusing on prime properties with long-term stability. Competitive yields, eased lending terms, and Finland's reputation as a safe operating environment have further strengthened market confidence. Opportunities in well-located assets are expected to remain attractive in the coming months.
Trevian's autumn market review reported that Finland's real estate market has entered a phase of recovery, marked by higher transaction volumes, improved liquidity, and growing investor activity. The rebound follows a wider European trend of stabilisation but is particularly notable in Finland, where both domestic and international players are demonstrating increased confidence.
The residential sector has emerged as a significant contributor to growth. Despite continued pressure from high construction costs, demand has remained resilient in regions experiencing population growth, encouraging new development and supporting balance in supply and demand.
Commercial investment is also recovering, though activity has become increasingly selective. Investors are concentrating on premium assets that provide steady returns through long-term leases. The appeal of Finland as a destination for both real estate and infrastructure investment has also strengthened, supported by improved financial market conditions and more favourable lending opportunities.
Foreign investor participation has expanded, underpinned by Finland's reputation for stability and its diversified property market. Prime yields continue to offer attractive spreads compared with other Nordic markets, with the gap between Finnish and Swedish office yields remaining wide, though expected to narrow as leasing markets gain strength. Retail property, on the other hand, is displaying more balanced pricing, without major disparities in yield levels.
The review also noted that the remainder of the year could deliver compelling opportunities across investment strategies. Investors focusing on growth centres and carefully managed prime assets are likely to benefit, while ventures into peripheral markets may carry higher risks.
With market conditions improving and strategic opportunities emerging, investors concentrating on prime and well-located assets are positioned to benefit from the positive momentum through the remainder of the year.
