Why It Matters
The Correctional Service and Diös had a 15-year lease for a planned class 2 facility on Frösön in Östersund.
The real estate company Diös announces in a press release that they have received notification from the Correctional Service that the authority is not fulfilling the 15-year lease for the planned class 2 facility on Frösön in Östersund.
For the property company Diös, this means that the sale they made of the property on Frösön will not be completed either. Diös notes that the sale was conditional on the validity of the lease agreement and that since the condition for building permission has not been met and the deadline has expired, the Correctional Service has chosen not to proceed with the lease agreement, which means that the deal will not be carried out.
- It is of course regrettable that the project cannot be carried out as planned and that we are therefore not taking possession of the property. We thank you for a fine collaboration with Diös and the Correctional Service throughout the entire process. For Stenvalvet, the announcement does not change our long-term ambition to continue investing in and developing appropriate properties for the judiciary and other socially important activities, says Maria Lidström, CEO, Stenvalvet.
