REDE Eiendom Joins Aktiv: A New Chapter for Helgeland’s Property Market
REDE Eiendomsmegling, a well-established real estate agency on the Helgeland coast of Norway, is becoming part of Aktiv Eiendomsmegling. This move, finalized on March 10th, will see the four REDE offices in Brønnøysund, Sandnessjøen, Mosjøen, and Mo i Rana operating under the name Aktiv Helgeland. The decision follows a thorough evaluation process, according to REDE’s long-time managing director, Mona Kristiansen.
A Strategic Move for Enhanced Services
Kristiansen emphasized the increasing demands for documentation, compliance, and robust systems within the real estate sector. Joining Aktiv provides a more secure framework to meet these challenges. “We felt at home with Aktiv from the start, both in terms of location and the way people within the chain work,” she stated. This integration aims to deliver enhanced services to clients across the Helgeland region.
Local Expertise, National Strength
REDE Eiendomsmegling, founded in 1997, has a strong track record and is currently owned by Helgeland BBL. The agency employs 15 people and facilitates the sale of homes, leisure properties, and agricultural estates. Aktiv Eiendomsmegling, part of the Eika alliance – owned by 40 local banks including Grong Sparebank – will leverage REDE’s local knowledge and established presence.
Understanding Helgeland’s Diverse Markets
The Helgeland property market isn’t uniform. Areas like Brønnøysund and Sandnessjøen have demonstrated stability, while Mosjøen and Mo i Rana have faced tougher conditions. Aktiv Helgeland will maintain its four local offices, recognizing the unique characteristics of each area. Kristiansen highlighted the importance of understanding local price levels, buyer demographics, and market pace.
Benefits for Buyers and Sellers
The partnership is expected to benefit both buyers and sellers. Aktiv’s broader marketing reach and improved digital tools will increase property visibility. Kristiansen explained that this allows her team to dedicate more time to client advice, follow-up, and transaction completion, rather than administrative tasks. Karsten Onsrud, Managing Director of Aktiv Eiendomsmegling, expressed his enthusiasm for welcoming REDE’s experienced team.
Leveraging the Eika Alliance
The collaboration with Grong Sparebank, a member of the Eika alliance, will provide customers with comprehensive support throughout the entire home-buying journey. This includes access to financing options and expert guidance.
A Growing Network
With the addition of the four REDE offices, Aktiv Helgeland becomes offices number 95, 96, 97, and 98 within the Aktiv chain. Aktiv Eiendomsmegling has already added six new offices in 2026 and plans for continued expansion, prioritizing strong, local teams that deliver quality service.
