slutpriset

Slutpriset is a term used to describe the final price at which an asset, object or property is sold after a bidding process or auction. It represents the amount paid by the buyer at the moment of sale and is typically distinguished from the starting price, estimated value, or reserve price. The concept is common in Swedish real estate practice as well as in auction houses, where the slutpris is recorded for market statistics and transparency.

In real estate, slutpriset refers to the actual sale price that a property achieves through a bidding process or a negotiated sale. It is often published by the broker or the auction house and is used to reflect realized market values rather than listing prices. In auctions, the slutpris is the final bid that secures the sale and may be accompanied by additional charges such as a buyer’s premium or taxes, depending on the terms of the sale.

In financial markets, the term slutpris is less standardized. The closing price of a stock or other security is commonly referred to as the closing price or, in Swedish, slutkurs or stängningskurs rather than slutpris. Nevertheless, some sources may use slutpris informally to denote the final traded price of the day in certain contexts.

Etymology and usage: slut means end and pris means price in Swedish, together indicating the price at the end of a sale. The term is mainly practical and descriptive, used by brokers, auctioneers, and market analysts when reporting final sale prices.
