Die Kieler Wohnungsgesellschaft (KiWoG) is a modern, municipal housing company under the sponsorship of the state capital Kiel, which is committed to creating affordable and socially responsible housing. Since its foundation in 2019 and the start of business operations in 2020, KiWoG has been pursuing the goal of relieving the tense Kiel housing market through sustainable new construction, the acquisition and management of residential properties. The company attaches great importance to developing needs-oriented and lively residential areas at the pulse of the city and improving the quality of living for all Kiel residents[3][5][6][7].
The main mission of KiWoG is to create and secure affordable housing in the long term in order to counteract the strong development of rents on the local market. This includes both the new construction of subsidized housing, such as the "Marthas Insel" project with around 100 apartments, and the expansion of the portfolio through the purchase of existing properties. In addition, the company is involved in social housing projects such as the construction of women's shelters in order to meet special social needs. KiWoG thus plays an important role in municipal housing as a counterweight to return-oriented investors and promotes the cooperative principle of housing with a focus on the common good[3][4].
KiWoG's values are based on sustainability, social responsibility and a close connection to urban society. The company sees itself as a service provider for its tenants, who are seen as more than just users, namely as part of the community. Transparency, solidarity and equality are firmly anchored in the company's philosophy. The KiWoG team strives to ensure a high quality of living and sustainable urban development with a motivated and professionally broad-based team of employees[5][6].
In the area of sustainability, the Kieler Wohnungsgesellschaft is pursuing ambitious goals: In addition to the use of modern, energy-efficient construction methods, the focus is on the development of sustainable, climate-friendly residential areas. New construction projects are planned and implemented taking into account ecological standards in order to minimize the consumption of resources and reduce the CO2 footprint. In addition, emphasis is placed on social interaction and integration in the neighborhoods, which promotes social cohesion and creates livable residential environments[5][6].
Overall, the Kieler Wohnungsgesellschaft positions itself as a competent and responsible player in the municipal housing market, which contributes to making the city of Kiel livable, socially balanced and sustainable through sustainable initiatives. Through close cooperation with urban partners, committed tenants and local craftsmen and planners, KiWoG makes an important contribution to solving pressing housing policy challenges in the region[3][5][6].
