Swedish proptech company Qasa launches in Norway
Norway’s rental market is pressured - with high demand and strong competition. Qasa, a Vend subsidiary, is now entering the market to make renting safer and easier.
Demand for quality rentals continues to grow in Norway’s major cities year on year. Tenants report high levels of competition, while landlords are struggling to find long-term tenants and avoid unnecessary administrative work.
"Qasa is a proptech platform that combines technology and insight to address key pain points in today’s rental market – from uncertainty around payments to time-consuming admin. Our platform provides automated support from start to finish," says Maria Björkander, CEO of Qasa.
Since its launch in 2014, Qasa has grown to become Sweden’s largest rental platform, with approximately 200,000 rental listings per year, and has also expanded to Finland. The company has positioned itself as a vocal contributor to public conversations around discrimination in the rental market. As one of the leading players in Nordic proptech, Qasa has continuously developed user-centric technology with a focus on safety, simplicity, and equal access to housing.
Qasa and its parent company Vend view the launch in Norway as an opportunity to simplify the rental process and create a smooth, secure experience for both tenants and landlords through standardised and fully digital tools.
Making it easier to rent out
"Landlords want stable, long-term tenants. Qasa supports both parties with automated and digital services that help build trust throughout the lease period. This creates a better overall experience and makes renting easier for everyone," says Björkander.
Qasa offers a fully digital solution that acts as an independent third party between landlords and tenants, increasing safety and reducing friction. The service includes listing tools, rent guarantees, and deposit-free renting options. Users also receive administrative support throughout the lease period. Qasa’s payment solution ensures landlords are paid on the same day each month.
"We’re proud to bring a proven proptech solution to the Norwegian market," says Maria Björkander. "Qasa makes renting more accessible and more sustainable — and provides both landlords and tenants with the tools they need for a simpler, safer rental experience."
Qasa was launched in Norway on May 27 at Qasa.com and Finn.no, supported by a dedicated customer service team. Tenants can already create a profile, search for available homes, and sign rental agreements digitally — without deposits and with full peace of mind.
