The office property Dalmasen 2, situated on Storgatan in Linköping, contains, among other tenants, the travel agency Linköpings resebyrå and the opticians SE Optik. The buyer is Lindsténs Cityfastigheter AB and possession of the property was transferred on 15 January 2010.

“It feels good that the transactions market is starting to move again and that it is possible to carry out transactions with a good profit. The greatest interest among purchasers was from local players”, says Klövern’s CEO Gustaf Hermelin. “These sales of two small and solitary properties entail a concentration of the portfolio in the respective market.”
