Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/22/2014 -- After several years of strong growth in the home market in Norway, the market began to slow down in 2013. This resulted in slightly slower growth in home improvement and gardening stores which decreased in value sales from 4% in 2012 to 3% in 2013. According to Norges Bank, the annual growth in house prices saw a clear downward trend since December 2012. This trend is expected to continue as banks want to restrict their lending standards further for Norwegian households.
