Already before the announcement, there were more than twice as many homes for sale in Skellefteå as last year. Then Northvolt's bankruptcy hit like a bomb. We are stressed about not being able to sell the house. We have wanted to sell it since last summer, says a real estate agent.
BusinessThe battery manufacturer Northvolt is in crisis, but the ripple effects have not yet reached Skellefteå's housing market, according to real estate agents in the city. There is no one selling in desperation, says Fredrik Lindfors at Svensk Fastighetsförmedling.

We wonder how they have managed their operations if they need to make such large price increases, says Joachim Höggren, chairman of the Nils Holgersson group.
