We collaborate with municipalities to create positive societal impacts

Why Solhemmet

With thoughtful layouts, smart home-care logistics, and open-book delivery, we lower municipal risk—and help seniors live well, longer

Housing Chains background image

Housing Chains

Many seniors remain in oversized homes for too long. This is detrimental for the elderly, but also from a socio-economic perspective as it creates inertia in the housing market.

We want to encourage more seniors to move to housing better suited to their needs, improving their quality of life. This also makes larger homes available to younger families of working age. It increases the tax base, raises birth rates, and strengthens the municipality's attractiveness.

Preserve Lifetime Wealth background image

Preserve Lifetime Wealth

For many households, BRF can outperform renting over time.

With capital-gains deferral and transparent monthly fees, seniors can rightsize without decades of pure rent outflow, while keeping comfort and community. We share scenario calculators, break-even points, and balanced real-world examples comparing BRF and renting to support informed decisions.

Care Efficiency by Design background image

Care Efficiency by Design

Design and clustering give care staff more time with the client.

Accessible layouts, purposeful common areas, and geographic clustering reduce travel for home care, increasing time-with-client and helping delay entry to special housing/eldercare facilities. We provide building-level key performance indicators, route examples, and savings projections for typical conditions.

Turnkey & Transparent Delivery background image

Turnkey & Transparent Delivery

Open-book, repeatable, and adaptable—lower risk from idea to move-in.

A proven four-storey courtyard typology with high accessibility and modular options—garage, garden house, on-site local services—delivers predictable cost, time, and quality via open-book procurement. We provide delivery roadmaps, governance models, and site-specific projections from idea to move-in.

Working With Us

Five clear steps from early analysis to long-term management

01

Interest & Analysis

We meet with municipal decision-makers and officials early to align on goals and constraints. A feasibility study and market analysis confirm whether the project is viable, where it fits, and what is required.

02

Land Allocation & Planning

Conditions for the intended plot are negotiated with the municipality and key agreements are set. If needed, detailed planning is initiated and carried through while future apartment demand is built.

03

Project Development & Coordination

Project documents are developed in parallel with planning, and building permits are secured. Interested buyers can pre-register, and when around 70% of apartments are pre-booked, construction can start. Plot purchase is completed and execution is coordinated with contractors, local subcontractors, and municipal stakeholders.

04

Implementation & Handover

The project moves into production with close supervision, transparent reporting, and ongoing inspections. Our project managers, site supervisors, and inspectors drive quality through final inspection, handover to the housing association, and resident move-in.

05

Board & Management

Solhemmet establishes the housing association, drafts its bylaws, and appoints the first board. We remain represented as a knowledgeable builder for at least two years after takeover, and municipal representatives can be offered board seats. The board then procures property management and related services.
