HSB Göteborg is a member-owned regional housing association serving the Gothenburg area. Founded in 1925, it has worked in the region for a century, beginning with the brf Åreskutan housing project in Strömmensberg. 1
Its activities cover the housing lifecycle: developing new condominiums and rental homes, offering savings and membership, and providing property management and development services to housing cooperatives and private property owners. 1 The association describes its approach as cooperative and long-term, with members involved in its governance: members elect representatives and other elected officials who help decide the organisation’s direction. 1
HSB Göteborg reports approximately 75,000 members, nearly 400 housing cooperatives, around 38,000 cooperative apartments and about 1,600 rental homes. 1 Its operating area includes Gothenburg and surrounding municipalities, extending across parts of Västra Götaland and into Kungsbacka. 13 HSB Göteborg and HSB Malmö work through a shared organisation and common processes, but remain legally independent associations with separate boards and CEOs; they have stated a shared goal of a possible future merger. 1
The current listed head office address is Sven Hultins Plats 2 in Gothenburg. 2 The organisation’s LinkedIn profile identifies Kristian Isberg as its CEO. 9
