What Ekero Bostader does

Ekerö Bostäder (legal name AB Ekerö Bostäder, org. nr. 556519-3645) is a municipal public-benefit housing company wholly owned by Ekerö kommun in Sweden. It owns, manages, builds, and rents out approximately 900 residential apartments and row houses across four islands in the Ekerö archipelago — Ekerö, Färingsö, Adelsö, and Lovön — making it the largest landlord in the municipality. The company serves individual residents including families, seniors (with designated 65+ housing), and young adults seeking their first apartment, with priority given to applicants already resident in Ekerö kommun.

The core technology platform is Mina Sidor, a self-service tenant portal built as a Progressive Web App and accessible via web or installable mobile app. It supports queue registration and apartment applications, digital contract signing, fault reporting, payment history, document uploads, and push notifications, with BankID authentication replacing passwords for queue registration and contract execution. Back-office integrations include Autogiro and E-faktura for rent collection via Bankgiro 427-2837. A structured three-level fault reporting system categorizes issues by object, space, and detail. Non-core systems encompass electronic key/passage access in select properties and online laundry room booking.

Ekerö Bostäder's revenue model is overwhelmingly recurring residential rent, set annually through negotiations with Hyresgästföreningen and comprising rents of roughly 5,000-16,000 SEK/month. Secondary recurring streams include parking (277-816 SEK/month, including EV-equipped spots), storage units (8 SEK/sqm/month in 2026), event venue rentals (Skeppet, Jollen, Kvarterslokal), and renovation-driven rent surcharges on standardized kitchen and bathroom upgrades (343-685 SEK/month for kitchens, 517 SEK/month for bathrooms). Distribution is exclusively direct and self-service via Mina Sidor, with no brokers or marketplaces; commercial and event spaces are booked through phone/email customer service. The company is governed by Swedish public-procurement (LOU), accessibility (Lag om tillgänglighet till digital offentlig service), and GDPR frameworks, and operates with 16 employees and a politically appointed board.
