This paper reflects some specific accommodations that have occurred in the Swedish rental sector as a consequence of Municipal Housing Companies (MHCs) complying with the Public Municipal Housing Companies Act of 2011, which required them to perform in a more business-like manner. It was not explicitly noted, but undoubtedly assumed, that the municipal sector of housing would function much as before. Unexpected consequences, however, have changed the competitive landscape. Not only have MHCs been affected, but independent rental companies as well. Further, tenants have not been particularly pleased with some of the developments. Three cases triangulate the observations.
