Wohnbau Weilheim – the housing creator



foundation
In February 1949, the ‘Zweckverband für sozialen Wohnungsbau im Landkreis Weilheim’ (Association for Social Housing in the District of Weilheim) was founded in response to the severe housing shortage following the Second World War.

Until 1965, 27 of the district’s municipalities belonged to the Association. However, since apartments were not built in all of the member municipalities, the Association transformed into the ‘Gemeinnützige Wohnbau GmbH Weilheim’ in 1965. Since then, members have included seven municipalities from the former administrative district of Weilheim and the district itself.

After the need for public housing was abolished in 1990, the company rebranded to become ‘Wohnbau GmbH Weilheim i.OB – Gesellschaft für sozialen Wohnungsbau’. Since then, the company has been registered under this name in the Munich Commercial Register under HR B 41449 with a limited company share capital of €1,022,583.80.

portfolio

publicly funded
Low-interest loans and grants are awarded by the public authorities when building subsidised apartments in order to lower building costs and ensure affordable rental rates. These properties are known as “social housing”, “subsidised apartments” or “affordable housing”.
If the public loan is paid back on a residential building the rental restrictions no longer apply. These “privately financed apartments” can then be privately let at usual market rates without having to factor in income limits – a path which Wohnbau Weilheim consciously does not take. We also rent out these private apartments at rates lower than the usual market standard.
As of 31 december 2022, 630 of our apartments were “publicly subsidised” (strict allocation criteria, certificate of eligibility to public housing (‘Wohnberechtigungsschein’) and 1,047 were “privately financed”.
