Sepes

What Sepes does

Sepes, commercially branded as Casa 47, is a Spanish state-owned public business entity (Entidad Pública Empresarial de Suelo) founded in 1971 and operating under the Ministry of Housing and Urban Agenda (Ministerio de Vivienda y Agenda Urbana). Headquartered in Madrid, it is the official instrument of the Spanish government for residential and industrial land development, affordable housing management, and business development through PERTE (Strategic Projects for Economic Recovery and Transformation). The entity was rebranded from Sepes to Casa 47 in 2024 as a new commercial identity while retaining its public-entity legal status.

Casa 47 operates across two principal service areas: Vivienda Asequible (Affordable Housing) and Desarrollo Empresarial (Business Development). Its product portfolio spans affordable rental and acquisition programs, the State Affordable Housing Park rental management, housing and land transfer services, the Buscador de Actuaciones digital search tool, the Electronic Headquarters (Sede electrónica) portal, and dedicated programs for DANA-affected municipalities including housing acquisition and land purchase calls. A flagship 2026 initiative is the €140 million Nuevo Barrio Campamento urbanization project in Madrid, alongside a €56 million contract awarded for integral management of the affordable rental portfolio. Distribution is conducted through government-direct channels: the State Contracting Platform, Electronic Headquarters, public calls (Convocatorias), and the Teléfono 047 citizen hotline, supported by a broad social media presence across LinkedIn, X, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok.

Casa 47 does not operate as a commercial enterprise. It is funded through public budgets and government procurement rather than market pricing, and serves Spanish citizens, municipalities, and businesses needing affordable housing solutions, disaster-recovery housing, and industrial land. Its competitive position is defined by its statutory mandate and exclusive policy role rather than product differentiation, and it has institutional partnerships with SAREB (the bank asset management company) and operates under direct oversight of the Ministry of Housing and Urban Agenda.

Broad incumbents

• Homes England: UK government's housing accelerator and land development agency operating under the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities; comparable in mission (public-backed affordable housing supply and land disposal) though jurisdictionally separate and operating at a national level.
• Bundesanstalt für Immobilienaufgaben (BImA): Germany's federal real estate agency managing federal property, including residential portfolios and development land. Comparable as a state-owned entity handling residential and land assets, even though its mandate is broader than housing-only.
• Hong Kong Housing Authority: Hong Kong's statutory body delivering public rental and subsidised housing; comparable as a public-sector housing provider with similar land and residential development functions in a different national context.
• CDC Habitat (Groupe CDC Habitat): Major French social housing operator affiliated with Caisse des Dépôts; comparable as a publicly-backed affordable housing provider executing residential development at national scale in continental Europe.
• Singapore Housing & Development Board (HDB): Singapore's statutory board for public housing, managing the national affordable housing stock and rental programs. Functionally equivalent in mandate to Casa 47 at far greater scale in a different jurisdiction.

Direct peers

• SAREB (Sociedad de Gestión de Activos Procedentes de la Reestructuración Bancaria): Spain's government-backed asset management company created after the banking crisis to manage and redeploy bank-owned real estate, including for affordable housing. SAREB is named as a direct partner of Casa 47 and operates with overlapping public-mandate model for converting real estate into social use.

Regional players

• EMVS Madrid (Empresa Municipal de la Vivienda y Suelo): Municipal housing and land company of Madrid, performing the same affordable housing and land development mandate as Casa 47 but at the city/regional level rather than national, and a likely operational reference point for residential programs in Spain's largest city.
