URBAN LAND&PROP MRKTS SWEDEN CL (European Urban Land & Property Markets, No 5)

Specially commissioned for the European Urban Land and Property Markets series, this volume on Sweden follows the structure and approach of its companion volumes. It will meet the growing demand for an understanding of the urban land and property markets in Sweden, whose property industry is active throughout Europe and is of considerable interest in view of the enlargement of the European Union to incorporate Sweden and Finland. The book offers detailed accounts of the policy, legislative and regulatory frameworks of urban land and property markets in Sweden, explaining how the markets operate and interact with the planning systems. It also incorporates a review of the second-home market, which is particularly well developed in Sweden. Fully detailed case studies are included to illustrate land development issues and the processes of purchase and sale of properties.
