Katarina Luhr (MP) writes in a reply to a letter to the editor on the DN View that only eleven of the Stockholm city districts to meet the blue-green of the requirements on the ”dominant” public goods, in order to be eligible for the remodeling. One of the districts that are singled out is Husby.
Husby, together with Kista and Akalla to the contiguous Norra Järva. There is urgent shortage of rental properties, not least in public housing. Kista was built almost exclusively with condominiums and single-family homes. In Akalla, much of the public good was transformed.
In the 90’s sold for nearly half of the Swedish residential stock in Husby out to ”a long-term buyer.” Since then, the tenants were sold a half-dozen times. The houses now owned by D Carnegie/Hembla. Major shareholder is the american company the Blackstone, whose majority owner is a colleague in the real estate industry to the president of the united states Donald Trump.
have gone under the radar in our media, but the business idea that our neighbors got to feel is to a large extent, buying up miljonprogramsområden and implement strong rent increases with the help of short-term cosmetic investments at the same time as long-term maintenance left unchecked.
This is in sharp contrast to Swedish Homes, as in Husby has an ongoing ten-year programme of mains replacement, thermal insulation, complete renovation of apartments and installation of the solar panels on the roofs. And with rent increases, which allows the majority to move back.
It required several years of struggle during the last liberal term of office before Husbyborna with the help of the Swedish union of tenants could conclude the agreements on how the renovation would go to with Svenska bostäder and the city of Stockholm – represented by the then ytterstadsborgarrådet Joakim Larsson (M).
there, when it was the worst, plans to demolish the 1,100 apartments. These would be replaced by townhouses and condominiums, ”because it’s nicer”, as the investigator Sten Jonsson put it when he unveiled the plans.
now stop the process by transforming or selling the Swedish Residential house would be experienced as a betrayal. For those of us who live in the North of the Järva seems Svenska Bostäder, the remaining holding as a small remaining public reserve.
For the individual it doesn’t matter how large or small the stock is. If you are, as I have lived for 36 years in an apartment with a landlord who you have chosen and will ”offer” to put the bunny on her small savings and go into debt in order to get stay and try to get the pension to be sufficient to pay the debt, you feel no enthusiasm or gratitude.
neighbors against the unlikely event that you would like and manage to buy the house, so you had them as a landlord, is not attractive. Nothing bad about the neighbors, but they may not match either the Swedish residential resources or skills as caretakers and hosts.
in Addition, the Swedish Housing as a serious actor with his presence a continuity and security that is needed in Husby.
