”The deal supports our strategy for profitable growth and further strengthens our position in the rental housing market in the largest growth areas. The homes are primarily located in apartment buildings, with only a few in townhouses. They are relatively new and located in locations that are well aligned with our strategy. Our new tenants will be able to benefit from our personal service and our digital solutions that ensure a smooth everyday life. We warmly welcome them to Satohomes,” says Antti Aarnio, CEO of Sato.

Sato now owns approximately 27,000 rental apartments in Finland and is one of Finland's largest real estate companies focused on housing. Fastighets AB Balder joined as a partner in 2015. At the end of 2024, Balder's ownership share amounted to 57.1 percent.
