Moselis Oph Moselle

What Moselis Oph Moselle does

Moselis OPH Moselle is a public social housing office (Office Public de l'Habitat) headquartered in Metz, France, structured as an EPIC (Établissement Public à caractère Industriel et Commercial) under the supervision of the Département de la Moselle. Founded in 1949, the organization is the largest social landlord in the Moselle department and manages more than 15,000 social housing units distributed across approximately 150 communes, serving low- and modest-income households as its primary customer base. Its core product is rental social housing with monthly rents ranging from €216 to €994 depending on unit type, complemented by a property sales program offering individual houses and apartments priced between €50,000 and over €300,000.

The business model rests on two revenue streams: recurring rental income from the managed portfolio and capital recycling through property sales. Operations are delivered through a decentralized agency network that provides local tenant service across the department. Active capital deployment includes the €36.8 million Wiesberg quarter urban transformation, the €2.3 million Thionville Residence developed in partnership with ATHENES for vulnerable populations, and the renovation of the Creutzwald local agency. Technology infrastructure is modest, centered on a website-based property search portal and Matomo for web analytics, with no disclosed AI/ML capabilities.

Strategic positioning is increasingly ecosystem-oriented: Moselis has formalized partnerships with ATHENES, Centre Social MDA, and Ville de Metz, extending its role from landlord to coordinator of housing-linked social services. Regulatory positioning includes GDPR compliance certification and approval of a Consumer Mediation Service. Headcount sits in the 101–250 range, supporting a project-led growth model rather than aggressive expansion, consistent with a public-mandate operator whose growth is policy- and capital-constrained.

Scale indicators5 records

Recent moves8 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• ICF Habitat: Subsidiary of SNCF Group operating approximately 100,000 social housing units nationally. Comparable rental and home-ownership product suite, but with a broader national footprint and group-level financial backing.
• CDC Habitat: France's largest social housing operator, owned by Caisse des Dépôts, managing hundreds of thousands of units nationwide. Directly comparable as a publicly-mandated social landlord, but operates at national scale rather than in a single department like Moselis.
• Action Logement: National umbrella organization managing employee-funded social housing at very large scale. Comparable social-housing mandate and tenant base, but operates as a federated national network rather than a single regional OPH.

Direct peers

• Erilia: National ESH with a portfolio of approximately 60,000 social housing units across southern and eastern France. Comparable affordable-rent mandate, ownership pathway programs, and tenant-services model to Moselis.
• Vilogia: Major French social housing operator (ESH) active in northern and eastern France including parts of the Grand Est region. Comparable rental portfolio scale, social-housing mandate, and presence in the same regional geography as Moselis.
• Meurthe-et-Moselle Habitat: Departmental OPH covering the neighboring Meurthe-et-Moselle department. Structurally the closest peer — same OPH legal form, same departmental scope, similar mandate, and operating in an adjacent geographic market with comparable demographics.
• Logirem: ESH operating around 23,000 social housing units across multiple French regions. Directly comparable scale and product mix (affordable rentals, homeownership pathways, neighborhood renewal) to Moselis's 15,000-unit base.
• 1001 Vies Habitat: ESH social landlord active across multiple French regions including Grand Est. Comparable rental portfolio size, social-housing tenant base, and asset-management activities (renovation, neighborhood programs) to Moselis.
• Batigère: ESH group operating social housing across eastern France (Lorraine, Moselle-adjacent). Direct competitor with comparable mid-sized portfolio of affordable rental units and a similar local-government-aligned operating model.

Regional players

• Habitat 76: Departmental OPH of Seine-Maritime (Normandy) — structurally identical OPH model with a comparable regional portfolio of around 28,000 units. Useful peer for benchmarking departmental-OPH economics even though geography does not overlap with Moselle.
