Data sources

The data for calculating the price index are obtained from two different sources: the Norwegian cadastre and a quarterly survey. The cadastre provides information on dwellings completed during the reference period; location, utility floor space and who the owner is. Through the survey, Statistics Norway collects information about prices and quality characteristics that may have an influence on the price.

Time of measurement

The price is connected to the quarter in which the municipalities register the construction work as completed and not at the time of entering into the sales contract. Therefore, the price index for new detached houses intercepts large changes in the market with a delay of almost one year.
