The SAGA Group , SAGA for short , is a municipal housing company in Hamburg. It was created in 1999 from the merger of the former Siedlungs-Aktiengesellschaft Altona (SAGA) with the Gesellschaft für Wohnen und Bauen mbH (GWG). With around 136,000 apartments and around 1,500 commercial properties (as of 2019), which are almost entirely located in Hamburg's urban area, the company is the largest landlord in the city and the largest municipal housing company in Germany. In mid-2012, around 300,000 people, around a sixth of all Hamburg residents, lived in apartments belonging to the SAGA Group.

history

SAGA

Work in the Weimar Republic (1922–1933)

SAGA was founded on December 29, 1922 as a municipal company of the city of Altona / Elbe under the name Siedlungs-Aktiengesellschaft Altona . The entry in the commercial register of the district court Altona took place on January 25, 1923. The aim was to combat the drastic housing shortage prevailing in the city at the time. The main initiator of the establishment was Max Brauer , who was then the second mayor and city treasurer of Altona.

On April 1, 1923, the SAGA took over the completion of a garden city designed Steenkamp settlement in Bahrenfeld . The city planner Gustav Oelsner played a leading role. His will to form and design shaped SAGA until 1933. In 1923, SAGA managed 760 small town apartments. After the construction slowdown caused by the war and inflation , SAGA began building activity in 1924. The company also grew because the management of municipal real estate in the suburbs incorporated with the help of the Groß-Altona Act passed into the hands of SAGA. In 1927 the company looked after rental units in 1982. In 1930 SAGA bought apartments in 1907, increasing its portfolio to 2997 units.

The global economic crisis also created problems for SAGA: Many tenants did not pay their rents; the company raised rents three times to cover costs, leading to heated arguments with tenants; two housing cooperatives in danger of bankruptcy were taken over by SAGA. At the end of 1932 the company owned 3,775 apartments and managed around 1,800 more.

Period of National Socialism (1933–1945)

With the seizure of power by the National Socialists, the personnel structure of the company changed noticeably. Max Brauer, Lord Mayor of Altona and Chairman of the Supervisory Board of SAGA, was deposed and fled abroad. A number of other members of the supervisory board , the board of directors and the management had to give way, some of them were arrested. As a symbol of the “National Socialist Revolution”, the SA occupied the SAGA offices.

With the slow recovery of the economy and the SAGA took their construction activities again, but they were ideologically reshaped: Because flat roofs were the established in the Republic of years building as "un-German", they were gabled roofs replaced, partly linked to increases by another bullet .

The Greater Hamburg Act of April 1, 1937 changed the company's municipal framework. From now on it competed with other urban housing associations in the new Greater Hamburg. The SAGA was renamed now as profit settlement Aktiengesellschaft Hamburg and went into the ownership of Hamburg. In 1939 it merged with Baugesellschaft Hamburg mbH . Until the beginning of the Second World War (September 1, 1939), the SAGA had a stock of 6617 units. Only a few apartments were built during the war, due to material bottlenecks, quotas, labor shortages and, finally, an officially ordered new construction freeze. Air raids on Hamburg such as " Operation Gomorrah " damaged and destroyed considerable parts of SAGA's real estate portfolio by the end of the war (May 8, 1945). Of the 6,670 SAGA rental apartments, 1115 were destroyed. 259 buildings were so badly damaged that they could not be inhabited for the time being.

From 1943 on, SAGA built makeshift accommodation for bombed out, so-called panel houses (→ Poppenbüttel panel house ) on the instructions of Reich Governor and Gauleiter Karl Kaufmann . For this purpose, prefabricated concrete parts were used by concentration camp inmates in Neuengamme .

Post-war, reconstruction, large housing estates (1945–1972)

A building of the Grindel high-rise buildings

In the first post-war years, the focus was on the makeshift repairs to living space and accommodation. The omnipresent shortage of building materials put tight limits on any repair and new building project. Despite these obstacles, SAGA began planning the construction of the Grindel tower in 1947 , which was completed in 1956. In Harvestehude , twelve high-rise blocks with 8 to 15 floors and around 2,200 apartments were built. On April 1, 1948, the Hamburg Senate determined the regional responsibilities of the municipal housing associations, SAGA was accordingly responsible for the area west of the Alster and from Hamburg Dammtor station to the north of the S-Bahn line. The state housing associations then mutually sold the objects not located in their area. After the currency reform (June 20, 1948), the reconstruction and expansion of the property portfolio began, which at the time of this reform consisted of 6668 SAGA-owned apartments (1106 of which were destroyed), 3215 properties managed for third parties and 2964 small settlements . Important architects who worked on behalf of SAGA were Fritz Trautwein , Bernhard Hermkes , Ferdinand Streb and Rudolf Lodders .

At the end of 1951, SAGA had 7373 of its own rental properties. In 1952 the company announced the completion of the reconstruction of the apartment blocks that had been destroyed in the war. The large housing estate projects of the 1950s included the SAGA housing estate in Sülldorf ( Op'n Hainholt ) and the Fahrenort housing estate in Lurup (architects: Bernhard Hermkes and Gerhart Becker ). At the end of the 1950s, around 15,000 rental units were owned by SAGA. The storm surge of February 16 and 17, 1962 also hit SAGA tenants, as 800 settler sites managed by SAGA in Wilhelmsburg and Harburg were flooded. In order to be able to help the people who have become homeless, the company stocked up on houses under construction and thus created additional living space. In 1963, the company had 18,661 apartments of its own; at the end of 1965 this figure was 20,906. The large housing estates that SAGA helped to build in the late 1960s and early 1970s included the high-rise housing estate in Steilshoop and the Osdorfer Born , which at the time was considered to be a “prime example of new social housing ”. At the end of 1971 SAGA owned 29,520 rental units of its own, to which there were 275 externally managed apartments and 340 small settlements.

Merger and new tasks (1972–1999)

On July 7, 1972 , SAGA merged with the non-profit housing company Freie Stadt GmbH (founded on June 16, 1926), Neues Hamburg GmbH (founded on April 20, 1928) and Deutsche Wohnungsbaugesellschaft mbH Harburg (founded in 1929). The name Siedlungs-Aktiengesellschaft Hamburg was retained. For a short time, Hans-Ulrich Klose was part of the now five-person board of directors, to which John Leyding also belonged. As a result of the merger, the housing stock grew considerably: at the end of 1972 SAGA owned 74,031 units.

New residential construction did not play such a dominant role in the following years as in previous years, although the Mümmelmannsberg settlement started in 1970 or the Lenzsiedlung built from 1974 onwards were realized together with other important housing companies. Instead, renovation , refurbishment and modernization came to the fore. One focus was holdings in Wilhelminian-style districts such as Altona-Altstadt , Ottensen and St. Pauli . In the 1990s, ecological aspects gained in importance in the maintenance of existing buildings and in new buildings, such as the use of solar energy through solar systems or the implementation of low-energy houses . Settlements from the 1950s were also densified . The use of vacant lots , heightened storeys , loft extensions and new buildings on spacious green areas were considered suitable methods. In 1991, the SAGA administration completed a decentralization process, and the tenants and apartments have since been looked after by regional administrations. At this point in time there were 87,000 SAGA-owned apartments, and SAGA was responsible for the management of 8,000 more.

GWG

Free trade union building (1926–1933)

In contrast to the neighboring Prussian town of Altona, the Hamburg Senate did not set up its own housing association. Because private investors ceased to be involved in mass housing construction after the end of inflation, non-profit organizations began to alleviate the housing shortage through extensive housing projects. In Hamburg, the General German Trade Union Federation (ADGB) founded the non-profit small housing construction company Groß-Hamburg (GKB) in 1926 . By 1932 she had built 2,700 apartments, for example in Barmbek-Nord , in the Jarrestadt Winterhudes or on the Veddel . An important architect working on behalf of GKB was Karl Schneider .

From the GKB to the New Home (1933–1945)

The smashing of the trade unions had consequences for the housing associations of the ADGB. Like other companies of its kind, the GKB was forcibly incorporated into the German Labor Front (DAF). At first, GKB concentrated on the maintenance of its housing stock, it was not until 1936 that it started new construction projects again. In Barmbek-Nord, 240 simple apartments were built, preferably in rows . In 1938/1939 the DAF renamed its housing associations - the Neue Heimat was created . The regional breakdown of this company met the districts of the Nazi state , therefore, in Hamburg it operated under New home - Non-profit housing and settlement company in Gau Hamburg eGmbH . The housing stock increased by 1100 units, and another 465 were added in 1941 when the Hamburg portfolio of Heimat AG was taken over. The Hamburg housing stock of the Neue Heimat suffered considerably as a result of the war. Hardly any of the 4,300 units remained undamaged, more than half were completely destroyed.

From Nissenhütten to nationwide residential construction (1945–1962)

The lack of building material also hindered the reconstruction of the Neue-Heimat stocks. In addition, there was the fiduciary management of the former DAF companies, which were considered assets of the NSDAP . High debts from mortgages also restricted freedom of action. The company therefore initially concentrated on the construction of Nissen huts on behalf of the British occupation authorities . It was not until 1950, under the direction of Heinrich Plett, that the war damage repairs to the housing stock began; in 1952 it was largely completed. Plett quickly expanded the company he managed into a nationwide player in the housing industry: from 1953 onwards, Neue Heimat Hamburg gradually took over the ailing sister companies, and on September 20, 1954, the entire company was founded, with headquarters in Hamburg. The number of new units built annually nationwide in 1954 was 8,400, in 1960 it was almost 20,000. Ernst May and Hans Bernhard Reichow provided the designs for extensive construction projects for the Neue Heimat in Hamburg.

Diversification, crisis, scandal (1963–1988)

After the unexpected death of Heinrich Plett, Albert Vietor , previously commercial director and deputy chairman of the board of Neue Heimat, took over the management of the company in 1963. He opened up new areas of business, such as 1964 by the establishment of the subsidiary New home local to building construction , especially the construction of hospitals and schools. Neue Heimat Städtebau , founded in 1969 , was involved in the construction of commercial buildings . In residential construction, the expected cost advantages of the assembly method did not materialize, instead it contributed to the consolidation of monotonous building forms.

In 1973 the company had 330,000 apartments. However, this peak value could not avert the crisis of the group. The company gradually got into trouble because it was considered undercapitalized - in 1973 Neue Heimat was one of the largest private debtors in Germany. 90 percent of this debt was accounted for by the non-profit part of the group. Large parts of the operating profit had to be invested in modernizing existing buildings. The company was burdened by rising interest rates , high vacancy rates and a slowdown in the residential construction industry. The new home affair , triggered by a Spiegel report on February 8, 1982, heralds the end. The group not only had economic problems, several members of the management board had mixed private and business interests to the detriment of the group.

Owned by Hamburg (1988–1999)

After the collapse, the successor company GWG - Gemeinnützige Wohnungsgesellschaft mbH (today GWG Gesellschaft für Wohnen und Bauen mbH ) took over the Hamburg housing stock of the failed DGB company. In 1988 the GWG was integrated into the Hamburg company for investment management.

Merger and development since 1999

Merger

In 1999 SAGA and GWG formed as SAGA GWG an equal group according to Article 18 of the German Stock Corporation Act: Both companies were formally independent, but had a common group roof and a joint board of directors. In 1999 the company owned more than 130,000 apartments and 1,600 commercial properties.

Development since 1999

A number of internal integration projects were carried out in the following years. In 2005 the spatial merging took place by moving into the newly built corporate headquarters in Barmbek. In the 2007 financial year, SAGA acquired 19 percent of the GWG shares; through a voting rights transfer agreement , she also obtained the majority of voting rights in GWG. Since 2007, SAGA and GWG have formed a group that is also integrated on the capital side. In 2012 SAGA held 71.43 percent of the shares in GWG. The company has had 18 offices across the city since 2009 (as of February 2014). On January 1, 2017 the company changed its name. Since then it has been called the SAGA Group.

Current structures and numbers

Ownership and Revenue

owner

SAGA is wholly owned by the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg, partly directly, partly indirectly through holding companies.

The Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg holds 100 percent of the shares in HGV Hamburger Gesellschaft für Vermögens- und Beteiligungsmanagement mbH (HGV). For its part, HGV owns 100 percent of the shares in GWG-Beteiligungsgesellschaft . In 2012, it held 27.05 percent of the shares in GWG Gesellschaft für Wohnen und Bauen mbH . In 2012, HGV also owned 61.39 percent of the shares in SAGA Siedlungs-Aktiengesellschaft Hamburg . In 2012, SAGA held 72.95 percent of the shares in GWG Gesellschaft für Wohnen und Bauen mbH . As of January 1, 2013, SAGA's stake in GWG rose to 77.76 percent.

Subsidiaries

SAGA has seven subsidiaries (as of February 2014), each with different business purposes . These include, for example, services for renting vacant apartments or first-time letting in new buildings, promoting culture, communication, quality and satisfaction in residential areas , taking on IT services or training and supporting long-term unemployed people in the context of fixed-term employment .

Holdings

SAGA is involved in three companies. These deal with the care and support of elderly and disabled people, especially in Mümmelmannsberg, with the perception of housing industry interests in the field of telecommunications and broadband cable services, as well as with the care and advice of housing companies and third parties on insurance-related issues or the brokerage of corresponding policies .

sales

Sales in 2010 were EUR 881.0 million; in 2011 this figure rose to EUR 895.5 million. For 2012, the annual report showed 920.2 million euros.

Management and staff

Supervisory board and board of directors

The chairman of the supervisory board is the Senator for Urban Development and Housing of the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg. Petra Bödeker-Schoemann is also a member of the six-person committee .

Wilfried Wendel and Thomas Krebs have formed the two-person board since October 2015, with Thomas Krebs being the spokesperson.

staff

As of December 31, 2014, the company employed 913 people. This number includes employees and trainees . Converted into full-time positions , this number was 890. The vast majority of the workforce is responsible for the care and administration of the real estate in the head office, the 18 offices and the local housing administration (caretaker organization). There are also employees in the areas of “services”, “development and technical projects” and in the staff units .

Social Commitment

assignment

The self-image of the SAGA group of companies does not only result from the performance of purely residential tasks. On the basis of the direct and indirect municipal sponsorship, the company sees itself rather as “a strategic instrument in and for the city to promote living, business, education and work.” According to its own statements, the company wants “more secure and socially responsible supply” Layers of the population with living space ”. In this sense, inexpensive living space should be made available and social balance should be promoted in the neighborhoods. At the same time, attention is paid to an "appropriate [...] return on equity ".

Together with the Hamburg Senate, the districts and the local housing industry, SAGA is one of the actors who concluded the “Alliance for Living in Hamburg” on September 20, 2011, which set goals and measures for shaping the Hamburg housing market . In this alliance, the SAGA group of companies is primarily responsible for the construction of social housing .

Whether the company consistently adheres to the requirement of providing affordable living space that is also accessible for socially disadvantaged groups is sometimes questioned. In April 2013, for example, the Diakonisches Werk Hamburg criticized this. Rent increases are occasionally met with protests from tenants' associations and alliances critical of gentrification such as “ Right to the City ”.
