City's Housing Anyone who wants a long-term accommodation in Stockholm should contact the City's Housing. I have on several occasions received an apartment through them. It is about 97 000 people in their queue. But many of these are relatively passive in the queue. Maybe they stay in the queue for safety's sake, if it would end with their partner or because they are waiting for a particularly nice apartment to show up. About ten years ago the community wanted to dismantle the City's Housing. The municipal housing companies started internal queuing lists. The agreement between the private property owners and the City's Housing that they should leave half of their available apartments to the City's Housing. And the municipalowned housing in the surrounding municipalities left City's Housing. Now, however, it has turned and several real estate companies provide apartments to City's Housing again. The service works so that the interested list themselves on City's Housings website and then look there now and then on what it currently available. Then, the person who has sufficient queuing time to apply, admitts an interest form for the desired apartment. There are sometimes even well-located apartments that it is possible admitt interest forms for even with relatively short queuing time. They even have apartments that require no queuing time at all (see table 14). City's Housing is found on the Internet address www.bostad.stockholm.se. Table 14.

Buying condominium The buyer of a condominium purchase the right, in perpetuity, to use a particular part of a house. For the purchase to go through the buyer must elected as a member of the housing association for the particular house. It is usually not a problem, but the association may have special statutes like that all members must be followers of a certain movement. It may also be that the board refuse membership for someone they believe will have a bad economy. Though usually they are comforted by that a bank are willing to lend money to the prospective buyer. But some people, like youngsters, are sometimes refused to loan money, and they often solve the problem by letting their parents stand as co-owners and thus co-loaners for the apartment. The fee for the condominiums are normally based on each apartments size as a fraction of the total size of the house. Which results in thatfor a twice as large apartment one pays twice as high fee. But the costs that the fee is intended to cover does usually not double for a twice as big apartment. Which benefits owners of small condominiums at the expense of large ones. That is not the case for rental units where the rent per square meter is often higher for smaller apartments, or villas where many fees (like garbage collection and water) is quite independent of the living space. The majority of all sales of condominiums in Stockholm go through a estate agent. Probably buyers can trust that they know has to be done regarding the agreement, the application for membership in the association and so on. However, most estate agents do not do a proper technical inspection of the house. As a buyer, it is also worth remembering that the estate agent primarily represents the seller. Moreover, the agents earn more money the higher the price is for the apartment. So they are more interested in highlighting the apartment's good side than the bad ones. Thus, the buyer should make an assessment of the condition of what normally degenerates in a house, because if the house has to undergo extensive renovation, it may mean that the fee increases dramatically. It is most important to consider are: sewer, roof, facade and windows. The sewage pipes condition is checked easily by looking in the basement where the sewage pipes merge. If the pipes are in poor condition, they are rusty in places where the pipes bend horizontally. If the roof is bad, it is often rusty. If the facade is poor plaster has dropped in many places (which may be noticed as plaster bulges and it sounds hollow when someone knocks there). If the windows are in poor condition the frames soft at the bottom (you can check with a knife). The buyer should also ask someone in the association board (prefereably the chairman) if they are planning any costly renovations in the coming years. In addition, he or she should look through the recent annual reports, mainly to check the association's finances. Finally, the buyer should check if the given size of the appartment is really true. Many times, the figures are based on old measurements from a time when the exact area was not so important. You can find condominiums for sale on www.bovision.se and www.hemnet.se. Often, however,the final price is far above the prices quoted in the ads. In table 15 are shown examples of condominiums whose value has been appreciated by professional appraisers. According to the Dagens Nyheter, the average price of condominiums in downtown Stockholm is around 34 000 SEK/m 2 . Small apartments, however, have significantly higher price per sqaremeter, type 40 000-60 000 SEK/ m 2 . The inner suburbs it costs around SEK 20 000 and in outlying areas, the average price is about 10 000 SEK/sqm. The best way to check the current price per square meter in the area you are interested in is to go: www.sbab.se, and then click on the city guide. Table 15.
