GGW Gemeinnützige Grazer Wohnungsgenossenschaft is a nonprofit housing provider and property manager based in Graz, Austria. It was founded in Graz in 1909 to make good-quality housing affordable. 5 Its registered office is at Neuholdaugasse 5, 8010 Graz. 2
The cooperative develops and manages homes across Styria, with most construction projects in Graz and the Graz-Umgebung district. 16 It manages approximately 10,000 apartments. 6 Its work includes housing development, building management, new construction and renovation. 57
GGW says its purpose is to support social fairness in the housing market. It reinvests resources in new projects and sustainable housing rather than distributing profits. 1 Its stated approach includes offering largely open-ended rental agreements and rents regulated by law, with the aim of making housing more affordable and stable for tenants. 1 The organisation also identifies energy-efficient renovation and incorporating ecological innovations into new developments as priorities. 1
The company’s LinkedIn profile identifies its headquarters in Graz and names Dir. DI (FH) Gerhard Nopp as its chair (Obmann). 74 Its activities are focused on Styria, so its geographic scope is local rather than national or international. 1
