I'm curious what is the exact definition of an empty apartment here. Because whenever I see similar figures from Finland, "empty" invariably means "nobody has registered this as their primary address".
At least a couple of percent of apartments are always "empty", because there is often a gap between tenants. Many people have second homes, but those are technically "empty". Airbnbs are "empty". And so on.
- devjab 2y agoIt’s our industry association numbers so it can pretty much be described as “this apartment has nobody paying rent for it”. We call it “tomgang” which directly translates to “emptywalk” but I think the English word is vacancy. I’m not sure how many apartments would be considered “empty” by official numbers but probably something similar.
