HNAB: What is it? Everything about Hyresbostäder in Norrköping

HNAB is the former name of Hyresbostäder i Norrköping, Norrköping's municipal housing company. The company is owned by Norrköping Municipality and is the city's largest private landlord, with thousands of rental apartments in Norrköping and the surrounding area.

This article answers what HNAB is, what operations the company runs, how to contact them, what opening hours apply, and how to go about applying for an apartment.

HNAB and Hyresbostäder are the same housing company

HNAB previously stood for Hyresbostäder i Norrköping AB. The name HNAB is still used in everyday speech, but the company is today called Hyresbostäder i Norrköping and operates the website hyresbostader.se. The company is municipally owned by Norrköping Municipality and owns, manages and rents out rental apartments in Norrköping and the surrounding area.

Hyresbostäder is Norrköping's largest housing company. In addition to ordinary rental apartments, the company offers student apartments via Studentbo, senior housing, premises, garages and storage rooms. The company also builds new homes, for example in the districts of Inre hamnen and Lindö.

If you are looking for a home in Norrköping, Hyresbostäder is one of the first places to turn, especially if you want to rent first-hand from a municipal landlord.

How to apply for an apartment from HNAB

To apply for a vacant apartment from Hyresbostäder, you register in the company's housing queue and start collecting queue points. When an apartment becomes vacant, it is published on hyresbostader.se, and you can submit an expression of interest. Your queue points largely determine which apartment you can get, so it pays to join the queue in good time.

If you want to know how queue points work and how to apply, we have written more about it in the article HNAB queue points: How to collect points and apply for housing. It guides you step by step through registration and application.

For those who already have an apartment with the company, information on vacant apartments and applications is available on the page HNAB Norrköping: Vacant apartments & application 2026.
