Leading the way in community living
Setlementtiasunnot Ltd builds homes, communities, and a sustainable future. We offer affordable rental homes and community-oriented neighborhoods in seven cities. We are known for our residential blocks and are a pioneer of block-based urban development in Finland.
Our aim is to be the most desired landlord for our residents and to develop housing that is ecologically, socially, and economically sustainable. We are a non-profit organization approved by Varke (formerly ARA) and owned by Suomen Setlementtiliitto, which is politically and religiously independent.

Our values
Our values are community spirit, ecology and economy, which we are known and guide our activities.
Homes, blocks and communities with over two decades of experience
Founded in 2000, Setlementtiasunnot Ltd owns 21 rental buildings with more than 1,900 homes and around 2,200 residents. We offer more than just a roof over your head: we build living environments where neighbors know each other and everyday life is smooth and meaningful.
All of our houses have community space with a common living room and kitchen. Many of our destinations also have a sauna, a gym, a laundry and a music space, a workshop or auditorium. These facilities are available to all our residents, and community space can also be booked for your own use, such as parties or other important moments of life.
Our buildings are diverse, housing people of different ages and life situations. Among our residents are also special groups, such as people with developmental disabilities and elderly residents, whose everyday life is supported by external service providers.
Instead of houses, we build whole blocks together with our cities and partners. Our communal quarters combine different forms of housing, age groups and life situations. The heart of the block is a common yard surrounded by homes, common areas and services. Everyday life creates natural encounters, and the services provided by our partners enrich the neighborhood. We are a pioneer in block housing in Finland and proud of it.
We develop our activities with residents and partners openly and boldly. We utilize digital solutions such as the Kerro application and Resident Pages that streamline communication and use of services.
We believe that the best solutions are born through collaboration — now and in the future.
