Statistical news from Statistics Sweden 2026-02-17 8.00
Prices of newly built multi-dwellings and collectively built one- or two-dwelling buildings increased in 2024
According to the Building Price Index (BPI), building prices increase by 13 percent for both multi-dwelling buildings and collectively built one- or two-dwelling buildings. The Building Price Index is quality-adjusted. It is evident that the number of new construction projects in the data that the statistics is based on has decreased. For the year 2023, 121 multi-dwellings projects and 188 projects with collectively built one- or two-dwelling buildings were included, for 2024 99 multi-dwellings projects and 172 projects with collectively built one- or two-dwelling buildings are included.
In 2024, the total average production price for multi-dwelling buildings in Sweden was SEK 51 846 per square metre of useful floor space. The corresponding average production price for collectively built one- or two-dwelling buildings was SEK 42 717 in 2024.
Definitions and explanations
Production price refers to the total price of a dwelling project, that is, the sum of building costs, land costs, VAT, and any profit or loss of the building project. The production price refers to the selling price and corresponds to the previous term ‘production cost of the project’. Deductions for any subsidies have not been made.
Collectively built one- or two-dwelling buildings refers to buildings intended for sale or rental as rental or tenant-owned dwellings.
Useful floor space in dwellings (with certain limitations) refers to space above ground in a dwelling. Useful floor space is limited by the finished inside walls that enclose each dwelling, and includes kitchen cupboards, wardrobes and similar.
Non-residential floor space in dwellings refers to leasable spaces for offices, shops and similar.
Useful floor space refers to the sum of useful floor space in dwellings and non-residential floor space.
The Building Price Index (BPI) is a suitable tool for measuring price development that eliminates differences in quality, design and location as far as possible.
