Velkommen til Aberdeen

Moving to another country can be a fascinating thought, although it comes with many questions; 'How is it to live there?', 'How do I learn the language?', 'Where can I buy Norwegian food? ‘What do I do to get the kids into kindergarten?' Etc.

Aberdeen may not be on the other side of the globe, and not too different from Norway, but there are still many things one can wonder about our neighbours on the other side of the North Sea.

Well, you are not alone. There are actually quite a few people in your neighbourhood that are or have been in the same situation as you, and who are more than happy to share their experiences with you. 

In conjunction with the Norwegian British Chamber of Commerce we have compiled a guide which we hope will help you and your family cope with the practical elements of moving to a new country and sourcing accommodation whether initially leasing or, in time buying and selling.

Residential Property Quarterly Reflections and Insights

The latest quarterly report from the ASPC gives a reassuring picture of local market activity, with the house price index remaining, mostly, in the positive. The change in quarterly price is +1.5%, while the annual change is -0.5%. Taken over five years, the index is marginally positive at +0.4%. While the figures are reassuring, it may well be that our local market is yet to feel the strain of the general economic background and only time will tell whether this will be reflected in the remainder of 2023. Buyers’ wariness over the short term may well affect property sales as they effectively “sit tight” to see what happens with interest rates. This may result in a sluggish Autumn/Winter market as moving plans are put on hold, but for the moment, there is still healthy demand for properties in desirable locations and in good condition.
