I am not sure whether this only will have an impact on the rental market. Most of the employees will have to find a rent by themselves anyway. However, many say that property market is in a buble state in Norway and it may deflate soon.

I agree that this event will affect mainly the rental market, but many people owning houses in Stavanger just for company lease's purposes, and they may sell just to avoid extra charges, I hope!!!

Hi People if you want to stay current with news in Norway head to thelocal.no/page/view/national

I read that Statoil have just found a 25m - 75m barrel well of oil and gas and its selling at $100 a barrel right now so i think they will be safe

The housing market in Norway has always been a joke 45% of houses built last year were not needed. when you think the average child per couple is still just 1.5 its stupid to even build houses unless you get more of us skilled non Norwegians to fill them
