What is a Hitas home?

Hitas homes are owner-occupied housing intended for residents of the city, the price of which is regulated. Hitas homes are usually more affordable than the market price, but there is also an upper limit on the selling price of the homes. Hitas homes are always located on a rental plot owned by the City of Helsinki. Thirty years after the completion of a Hitas company, the company can be exempted from price regulation.
