A pretty façade for a rotten company for supposed public good

Their properties are sometimes pretty, but little else. They seem to care more about the greenery around their properties than the actual living spaces inside them.
With Gavlegårdarna, their customers are their lowest priorities; they put up a pretty exterior so they can fool people into thinking they care about their tenants, pushing sloppy renovations as an excuse to raise the rent, as if their yearly price hikes weren't bad enough.
Often they hire third parties to manage their properties so they can wash their hands of any responsibility, claiming they can do nothing about waiting MONTHS for essential repairs.

The customer service people are all polite and nice, but they do little to get anything done. Even a blatant fire hazard is something they feel no hurry to fix. And if they're responsible for damages to your property, they will fight you tooth and nail with rude, self-important legalese to try to scare you into giving up.

Gavlegårdarna also always aims at the lowest legal level of comfort for their tenants, with low temperatures in the winters, and unbearably hot temperatures in the summer, and their rude, mightier-than-thou managers will berate you if you try to bring up your rights in accordance to the tenants unions guidelines.

Publicly owned or not, Gavlegårdarna represent the absolute worst stereotypes of arrogant landlords.

Living in hell

I've lived on Gavlegårdarna's properties all my life, and it's very comparable to living in hell, I've moved multiple times but keep encountering the same problems and sometimes it just gets even worse. if theres anything broken on the property, you likely wont be having it fixed. every time i call about it they assure me that no fix is needed.

And there are loud neighbors no matter where i move, And theres no point in calling anyone about it because nothing will be done about that either.

Once i got my own economy stable, im switching housing authority.

If you're looking for a good place to live, it ain't here, that's for sure, literally any other Housing authority will do.
(You won't be getting your moneys worth here)
plus a lot of people around these rent properties, the people are just A-holes anyways.

Worse company. Worse Customer Service, All Fraud

I have been living here for several years. Floors broken, fridge releasing water, neighbours giving noises, workers come only 8am make heavy noises and stop work at 9am almost every day, illegal car parkings on front entrances everywhere. I reported many times but customers service either never replied or replied pathetic. Living in Nordoost Gävle. This company should be banned as they just robbing people with rents without any service. Hate living with them. Started looking for alternate accommodation.
