Property management services is a growth sector in Finland

19/10/2009

Property management services are set for further growth, according to a new report by VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland and Kiinteistöpalvelut ry.

Finland’s property management sector was worth some EUR 15 billion in 2008, constituting about a third of the whole value of the property and construction sector. Companies in the sector produce services that help construction investments retain their value and remain productive and fully operational.

The sector currently employs 100,000 people in Finland and its importance is growing all the time, according to Tauno Maksniemi from Kiinteistöpalvelut ry. Maksniemi believes that the sector will create more jobs in the future because there will be an even stronger focus on the lifecycle of properties and especially on energy consumption. Energy consumption can be reduced significantly through property management, which is good news for professionals in this sector.

Kiinteistöpalvelut ry is an association with about 400 member companies offering a whole range of property management services, cleaning services, office services, and technical services.
