Blar opp 59,5 millioner for eiendom på Hvasser

Magnus Halvorsen and Julie Ba Flaaten Halvorsen are set to receive 59.5 million kroner for property at Nordhavna 10 and 11 in Hvasser, Færder kommune, according to recent news. Magnus Halvorsen amassed a substantial fortune through stock investments and collaboration with Tor Olav Trøim in Bulkers 2020. The year 2025 marked the most profitable for investment company MH Capital, which they jointly own 50%.

Magnus Halvorsen holds one share type A, typically granting full voting rights and being the main share in a company with different share classes. Inge Ekker Bartnes, a lawyer and former Wiersholm partner, is the seller. He recently switched to being a senior advisor at Hafslund. Both the seller and buyer express satisfaction, though no further comments are available from property agent Daniel Shahabi of Eiendomsmegler 1 Sør-Norge.

The Hvasser purchase ranks among the most expensive summer home transactions of the year. Although the property was not advertised in the open market, very few luxury summer homes are sold at this price range; statistics from Finn revealed that two out of three summer houses were sold for a price of 595 between June 1 and August 10.

Summerhouse sales declined compared to the record year of 2020, when 1,034 were sold. The latest available summer residence report from Eiendom Norge showed that 1,098 summer homes were sold in the first half of the year, with an average price exceeding 3.5 million kroner, a 5.4% decrease from the same period last year. Færder kommune, including areas like Tjøme and Hvasser, and Lillesand kommune, with Blindleia, have the highest prices.
