  • FINEST BAY AREA DEVELOPMENT OY ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT Finest Bay Area - Railway Tunnel Between Finland and Estonia
    FINEST BAY AREA DEVELOPMENT OY ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT Finest Bay Area - Railway tunnel between Finland and Estonia The world’s longest railway tunnel project that uses private funding Finest Bay Area - Railway tunnel between Finland and Estonia The goal of the project is to construct an undersea railway tunnel between Finland and Estonia that serves both passenger and freight traffic and significantly reduces travel time between the countries. The travel time target between Helsinki Airport and Ülemiste airport in Estonia is approximately 20 minutes. The planned railway tunnel merges the Helsinki region and Tallinn into a single metropolis. The tunnel will connect Asia and Europe into a single hub for business, travel and traffic, since the tunnel project makes it possible to travel to Tallinn by train directly from Helsinki Airport. On the Estonian side, the possible connection with the Rail Baltica project will connect the region even more closely to Central Europe. Facts about the project • Tunnel length approx. 100 km. • The total cost of the project is estimated at EUR 15 billion. • The project is based on private funds. Control over the project company will remain in Finland, with project financing provided by international investors from all over the world. Equity will amount to 30% of the financing and 70% will be covered by debt. • At the moment, a one-way ticket costs 50 euros, a return ticket 100 euros and a yearly ticket 1,000 euros. Tickets are available from an online store: https://shop.finestbayarea.online/ • The project involves planning an artificial island which, according to the larger option, would enable real estate development on the island.

  • KTI Market Review Spring 2019
    KTI Market Review Spring 2019 The invested real estate market continues to grow Property transactions volume remains high Rental growth slowing down in the commercial property market Residential rents continue to increase KTI Market Review Spring 2019 Property transaction volume remains high in Finland. Investor interest is targeted at all sectors and regions. Foreign investor interest remains strong, but domestic players are also active in the transactions market. Strong investor demand and high development volumes contribute to the growth of the invested market. After a short break late in 2018, property yields have continued to compress. During the first quartile of 2018, transactions of the very best properties in the Helsinki CBD have been carried out at record low level yields. In addition to the Helsinki metropolitan area, yields have also decreased in the Tampere and Turku regions. Going forward, construction volumes are expected to decrease from their current high levels. However, commercial property stock continues to increase, as ongoing projects are completed in 2019 and 2020. In residential property development, the decrease in investor demand is slowing down the volumes from their record-high levels of 2018. Despite the decline, residential property construction volumes are expected to remain healthy. In the commercial property rental markets, the strong demand of the previous years is expected to slow down. In the Helsinki CBD, office rents continue to increase, but at a slower pace than in 2017 and 2018. The outlook in the retail market remains more negative, and rents are expected to remain stable in the best areas in Helsinki but to decrease in all other areas.

  • JLL Nordic Outlook JLL Nordic Outlook
    JLL Nordic Outlook Focus: Living Flexible office space Autumn Spring2019 2019 Property Data Definitions Prime Office Rent Prime office rent refers to the optimum open-market rent level that can be expected for a notional office unit of the highest quality and specification in the best location in a specific market or submarket on the survey date (normally at the end of each quarterly period). Prime office rent is normally based on prime units of over 500 sq m of lettable floor space and does not include prime rents for smaller floor spaces. Prime rent refers to occupational lease that are standard for the local market. A face rent, on the other hand, does not take the financial impact of tenant incentives into account, and excludes service charges and local taxes. It represents JLL’s view of the market and is calculated on the basis of an analysis/review of actual prime office space transactions, not including any unrepre- sentative deals. Prime Yield Prime yield refers to the optimum (i.e. lowest) “rack-rented” yield that can be expected for a notional office property of the highest quality and specification in the best location in a specific market or submarket on the survey date (normally at the end of each quar- terly period). The property should have been let at the prevailing market rent to a first-class tenant with an occupational lease that is the standard for the local market. The prime initial net yield, i.e. the initial net income at the date of acquisition, is quoted as a percent- age of the total acquisition price, which includes acquisition costs and transfer taxes.

  • HELSINKI Cushman & Wakefield Global Cities Retail Guide
    HELSINKI Cushman & Wakefield Global Cities Retail Guide Cushman & Wakefield | Helsinki | 2019 0 Helsinki is the capital of Finland and the largest and most important city in terms of commerce and trading. Helsinki is surrounded by Espoo, Vantaa and multiple other smaller cities, together they are usually referred to as the Helsinki Metropolitan Area (HMA). The population of HMA is about 1.5 million. Helsinki itself sets the tone to the Finnish economy and to all other Finnish markets. With broad avenues, grand architecture, well-tended parks and no high-rise buildings, Helsinki is a beautifully planned 19th Century city, but one that retains a small town feel. It is arguably closer in atmosphere and appearance to the major cities of Eastern Europe than those in the West, but it has the typically safe and clean reputation of a Scandinavian city. The main shopping areas in Helsinki CBD are located in high streets such as Pohjoisesplanadi, Mannerheimintie, Keskuskatu, Aleksanterinkatu, and Mikonkatu. There are also several large shopping centers located very centrally. Rental levels in these retail areas are the highest in Finland. Due to the weather conditions, shopping centers are very popular in Finland. HELSINKI OVERVIEW Cushman & Wakefield | Helsinki | 2019 1 HELSINKI KEY RETAIL STREETS & AREAS ESPLANADI AND MIKONKATUIn the very ALEKSANTERINKATU center of Helsinki, the Esplanadi area consists of two Aleksanterinkatu is one of the main retail streets in streets, Pohjoisesplanadi and Eteläesplanadi, northern Helsinki.
