  • Essays on Real Estate Perspective Concerning the Socially Deprived
    Organizational and Economic Aspects of Housing Management in Deprived Areas Gunnar Blomé Stockholm 2011 Building and Real Estate Economics Department of Real Estate and Construction Management School of Architecture and the Built Environment Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) 1 © Gunnar Blomé 2011 Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) Building and Real Estate Economics Department of Real Estate and Construction Management School of Architecture and the Built Environment SE – 100 44 Stockholm Printed by E-print Stockholm ISBN nr: 978-91-85783-19-9 TRITA-FOB-PHD-2011:4 2 Abstract This dissertation consists of five papers with different objectives. The overall objective is to improve knowledge of effective policies regarding socially deprived large housing estates. All studies deal with the real estate context from a housing company decision-making perspective. The first two papers focus on organisational issues and the following three papers deal with economic issues related to the development of a specific housing area. The research is based on case studies which involve specific methodologies such as interviews, direct observation and collecting data from company accounts. The main message of this thesis is that landlord policies and resources spent on operation and maintenance contribute to local area development. It is also underlined that there is a need for a paradigm shift in Swedish housing, since the regulatory framework appeared to be inadequate. The experience from this study shows that many problems can be solved within the existing laws and through efficient customised property management, but landlords need more effective incentives to improve their policies further. The first two papers address issues about how to organise local management resources in large housing estates.

  • Creating Community and Belonging in a Designated Housing Estate for Disabled People

Despite this, many housing so- lutions for older and disabled people continue to be built on a designated basis, with physical and emotional wellbeing outcomes being both contested and mixed. After reviewing key policy relating to social care housing alongside some of the theoretical and ideological positions, this article explores the social and emotional outcomes of a diverse group of disabled people living with mental health difficulties, physical and intellectual impairments, illnesses and age-related conditions, who moved into a small, purpose-built estate of smart homes. Drawing primarily on qualitative data collected from ten- ants prior to moving and again seven months following relocation, the impact of moving into the estate on tenants’ sense of wellbeing and feelings of inclusion will be analysed and discussed in relation to efforts to build a new community.

Further, the small amount of housing which attempts to fill the middle ground does not satisfy the needs of occupants in general, and low income family urban dwellers in particular. Thus our attempts have been to investigate whether the characteristics of the highly favoured single family dwelling could be incorporated into housing forms in the middle range of densities.

Grant a, Janelle Derksen a and Howard Ramosb aSchool of Planning, Dalhousie University, Halifax, Canada; bDepartment of Sociology and Social Anthropology, Dalhousie University, Halifax, Canada ABSTRACT Communities often stigmatise forms of housing targeting low-income tenants. This paper examines how media sources characterise one such form: rooming houses that provide multiple, low-cost, single-room accommodations in structures with shared bathrooms and/or kitchens. By analysing newspaper and online media coverage in Halifax, Canada, we illustrate the way the media describe the rooming house as a risky structure and its occupants as dangerous and marginalised persons requiring surveillance and regulation. Media coverage can play an important role in creating the social context within which local government fashions planning and housing policy interventions to control the size, location, and operation of unpopular housing options.

  • Project Description
    General Plan Update Section 3.0 Project Description 3.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION 3.1 ENVIRONMENTAL LOCATION AND SETTING The City of Murrieta is located in southeastern Riverside County, and is comprised of 26,852 acres (41.96 square miles) of which 21,511 acres (33.61 square miles) is located within the City limits and 5,341 acres (8.34 square miles) is located within the City’s Sphere of Influence. Surrounding cities include Menifee to the north, Temecula to the south and east, Wildomar to the west, and unincorporated Riverside County to the north, south, and east. The San Diego County border is just south of Temecula, and Orange County lies on the other side of the Santa Ana Mountains to the west. Regional access to the City is provided by the Interstates 15 and 215; refer to Exhibit 3-1, Regional Location Map. 3.2 BACKGROUND The City’s existing General Plan (1994, 2006 amendments) consists of the following eight State mandated and optional elements: Land Use Housing Circulation Conservation and Open Space Safety Noise Air Quality Economic Development Murrieta has changed significantly since its first General Plan was adopted in 1994. Subsequent updates to the Land Use Element, Circulation, and Economic Development Elements were completed in 2006. The national recession and pause in development pressure has provided an opportunity to realign City policy to prepare for the next period of growth. In 2009, the City of Murrieta initiated a comprehensive update of the General Plan. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT FOUNDATION FOR GENERAL PLAN UPDATE Prior to commencing the comprehensive update to the City’s General Plan, the City Council undertook a number of steps that lead to Council’s determination that economic development is the City’s number one priority and how that priority would serve as the foundation for the General Plan Update.

  • Privatising Management Services in Subsidised Housing in Hong Kong
    The research register for this journal is available at The current issue and full text archive of this journal is available at http://www.mcbup.com/research_registers http://www.emerald-library.com/ft Privatising Privatising management management services in subsidised housing services in Hong Kong Ling Hin Li and Amy Siu 37 Department of Real Estate and Construction, The University of Received August 1998 Hong Kong, Hong Kong, China Revised June 2000 Keywords Tenant, Property management, Housing, Privatization, Hong Kong Abstract Privatisation of services from the public sector is topical currently mainly because of the potential savings and efficiency to be gained. In the aspect of property management, the Hong Kong Housing Authority owns more than 600,000 units of public housing flats and the requirement for good and efficient property management services is enormous. The current policy of privatising these services to the private management agents has proved to be a correct direction in terms of retaining the growth of the public sector, and also improving the level of services to the tenants. While the privatisation scheme might bring in more opportunities for growth of the property management companies in the private sector, it is more important for the government to forge a proper transitional arrangement to switch to full private management in order not to endanger the already low morale in the public sector. 1. Introduction Privatisation is a general term describing a multitude of government initiatives designed to increase the role of the private sector in the provision of the conventional public services. The principles behind privatisation represent an ideology that puts larger emphasis on the efficiency of the market forces than on the public sector.

  • Suburban and Urban Housing in the Twentieth Century
    Suburban and urban housing in the twentieth century RUTH MCMANUS* Geography Department, St Patrick’s College, Drumcondra [Accepted 01 February 2011. Published 19 April 2011.] Abstract Ireland experienced dramatic political, social and economic change in the twentieth century, of which the shift from a majority rural to a majority urban population was one of the most notable. These changes are refl ected in the nature and form of the built environment. In this essay, the evolution of urban and suburban housing during Ireland’s fi rst urban century is considered. Existing patterns of unplanned middle- class suburban expansion were supplemented, from the 1920s, by a programme of planned working-class suburbanization. State intervention thus impacted on the location and form of new housing estates, while layouts owed much to the early British town-planning movement. High levels of owner-occupation in Ireland, the combined result of government policy and individual preference, were also refl ected in a preference for particular housing forms. The predominance of the standardised three- or four-bedroom, semi-detached or detached house, was not challenged until the 1990s when there was a surge in apartment provision, largely driven by tax incen- tives. Changing norms in terms of housing size, facilities and design were shaped by the standards adopted by government and local authorities, as well as to the pressures of the speculative building process. Introduction and The place called home, in an Irish context, changed little in the course of the twentieth context century, and yet it also changed dramatically. This apparent contradiction can be explained by the fact that, while the typical home at the beginning of the twenty-fi rst century remains the single-family detached or semi-detached dwelling, its location and context are now rather different.

Czech paneláks are disappearing, but the housing estates remain / České paneláky miznú, ale sídliská zostávajú Abstract A common lament about the legacy of communism in Europe is the damage that it did to the built environment. Particular ire is directed at the concrete prefabricated housing blocks, known in Czech and Slovak as paneláks (structural panel buildings), groups of which were arranged in housing estates (sídliště in Czech and sídlisko in Slovak) to create the region’s characteristic postwar districts. Paneláks were not only signs of the increased production of new housing, but also indicated the acceleration of urbanization in the region as residents moved from rural areas to towns and cities for work. According to United Nations statistics, 75 percent of the Czech population lived in urban areas by 1980, compared to only 54 percent in 1950 .
