HOX® Price Index

HOX® Price Index is one of Sweden’s most reliable and comprehensive tools for monitoring price trends in the housing market. Developed by Valueguard in collaboration with KTH and Nasdaq OMX, the HOX Price Index provides a detailed and quality-adjusted picture of price trends for both condominiums and villas. This index is based on data from real estate agents, where approximately 95% of all brokered transactions in the country are included in the data material, which ensures that the HOX Price Index follows the market’s real movements. The HOX Price Index is available for tenant-owned apartments and houses in Sweden, Stockholm, Gothenburg, Malmö and medium-sized cities. There is also a combined index for tenant-owned apartments and houses in Sweden. By adjusting for changes in the types of homes sold during different periods, the HOX Price Index provides a fair picture of the market’s development regardless of whether there are many or few sales in attractive areas. In addition to HOX, Valueguard also produces more than 2000 local housing price indices to monitor local markets. For real estate professionals, banks, analysts and public authorities, Valueguard’s house price indices are indispensable tools. They can be used to analyze market trends, assess risks, index portfolios and make informed decisions in a changing housing market. Thanks to the precision and credibility of Valueguard’s indices, they are also used by Statistics Sweden as part of the Swedish Consumer Price Index and distributed via platforms such as Macrobond. It is also possible to access the index via API or index packages sent out as files. The HOX Price Index gives you access to insights that enable you to navigate the housing market with greater confidence and accuracy. Whether you are a real estate agent, a bank, an investor or an analyst, the HOX Price Index can help you understand and act on market changes.
