Decrease in all building activity

At the same time as house-building is decreasing strongly, the growth in started floor space for other buildings than residential buildings is levelling off.


Dissemination of building statistics for June 2008 is postponed. Time for dissemination will be announced in the Advance release calendar when determined.

The figures for May 2008 show a reduction in square metres of utility floor space started in both the residential and the non-residential sector. In total the decline is 16.6 per cent compared with May 2007.

A total of 3.6 million square metres of utility floor space for industrial buildings were started during the first five months of 2008. This is a reduction of 6.3 per cent compared to the corresponding period of 2007.

During the first five months of 2008, building of a total of 9 828 dwellings was started. This is 3 945 fewer dwellings than in the same period in 2007.

Conversion to a new property register

As of 5 November 2007 the municipalities will be transferred in groups from the Ground Parcel, Address and Building Register (GAB) to the new property register, Matrikkelen. All municipalities will be transferred by the end of February 2009. In connection with the conversion there may be some delay in the registration of the municipalities that are being transferred. The Norwegian Mapping and Cadastre Authority has an overview of transfer dates for each municipality .
