Komu Homes & Catella: Smooth Property Management Across Finland’s Residential Portfolio

Komu Homes began managing Catella’s Finnish portfolio less than six months ago, but the results are already visible in daily operations. Communication has been open, fast, and flexible on both sides, enabling quick responses to both leasing and maintenance needs.

"Komu’s proactive approach and attention to detail have made the collaboration enjoyable. It’s important for us that challenges are addressed openly, ideas are actively exchanged, and that we develop together," says Catella’s Asset Management Director, Tiina Holmström.

‍"Collaboration with Catella has started excellently and has created a strong foundation for long-term work. It’s been valuable to see how shared goals have already materialised from the very beginning, providing a solid base for moving forward," comments Komu’s Operations Manager, Veera Kampman.

Solution-Oriented Approach

Catella is open to Komu’s bold proposals, and together they have implemented quick actions that have accelerated property marketing, leasing, and occupancy rates across all portfolios. Komu’s team is recognised for its continuous drive to improve and its positive, solution-focused attitude. Problems are seen as challenges to tackle immediately and solve together.

Based on feedback, new tools have been implemented, such as real-time project tracking, and an energy efficiency improvement project has been initiated. Financial management has also been quickly taken under control, with noticeable progress achieved in a short time. “Adaptation to reporting in accordance with the extensive requirements of German funds has taken place swiftly and the necessary changes have been handled efficiently,” says Catella’s CFO Iiro Nurkkala.

Digital Service Experience for Residents and Owners

‍The development doesn’t stop there. Komu and Catella continue to work closely to find new solutions that make living more enjoyable and rental and operational processes more efficient. Through integrations and new tools, data-driven management improves, creating better conditions for effective property management and smoother daily life for tenants. Komu provides a digital service experience that makes living effortless for residents while offering owners full transparency from the field.

Together, there is a clear direction: agile, solution-focused work toward the services of future living. "Our long-term goal is to make property management transparent and efficient, and to renew the entire industry model, not just individual processes," says Komu's CEO Roni Lahti.
