“During the third quarter, Castellum continues to deliver in line with our ambitious growth objectives. I’d like to note that Castellum operates on three strong markets – the rental, real estate and financial markets – and this enables us to continue to deliver steady growth at low risk. There are many reasons for our strong growth in income from property management. One important driver – which we always will focus on – has been Castellum’s efficient and customer-oriented management,” says CEO Henrik Saxborn in a comment.
