Your answers are valuable
To get an accurate picture of the rental prices for different types of rented dwellings in different parts of the country, it is very important that everyone participates. We cannot get information from another dwelling if you do not participate. The sample has been drawn to represent the Norwegian rental market.
The sample mainly consists of rented dwellings, but a complete register over rented dwellings in Norway does not exist, so it is possible that the sample also include some dwellings that are owned or predisposed in other ways. We want everyone to participate, regardless of whether you own the dwelling, rent the dwelling, or predispose the dwelling in other ways.
To compile statistics of high quality, we need answers to questions about:
- size and quality of the dwellings
- which type of dwellings that are rented
- length of the rental contracts
- what the rent is for different types of dwellings
The survey takes about 10 minutes to complete.
A small sample of those answering the survey will be contacted every month from November this year to October next year for a short web survey about changes in the rent. To measure monthly changes in the dwelling, we need answers every month.
A small sample of house owners will also be contacted about the rent of the dwelling. The information the owners provide about the dwelling will be connected to the information you provide in this survey.
If your dwelling is selected to participate, you will get an e-mail or a letter from us. You will also get a SMS with an invitation to participate. You can answer the survey by using the link you have received in the e-mail, letter, or SMS.
You can also answer by clicking the button ‘Go to survey’ on top of this page. Log in with username and password that you find in the e-mail or letter you have received. You can choose to answer in Norwegian or English. It takes approximately 10 minutes to complete the survey.
If you do not rent the dwelling, have moved from the address, or do not predispose the dwelling yourself, you only need to answer a few questions.
The survey should work on all browsers and devices (mobile, PC, tablet). If you experience technical problems, it can still be a good idea to try a different browser or device.
