2.6 the Problems of Real Estate Development
THE PROBLEMS OF REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT Problems of real estate development according to Omole (2001) are; 1. land acquisition problems ; The entire real estate development takes place on land, purchase of land from individuals involves exorbitant price due to the activities of land speculators. The land policy was promulgated in 1978 to solve this problems but it failed too. Ironically, the land use act that was enacted to enable Nigeria have access to land, hinders property developers from acquiring land for real estate development. Rigmarole processes involved in acquisition of land, cumbersome and costly procedures involved in processing certificate of occupancy and the section 34(8) of the land use act allows the maximum allocation of half an hectare of land to developers affects the real estate developers in the participation of real estate development in Nigeria. 2. Problem of finance; finance is very important in real estate development because of huge capital outlay it involves. Acquisition of land buying of building material, payment of labour and so on requires finance. In most situation finance is not adequately provided for the real estate developers. this could be due to the short- term loan that is being granted to the real estate developers. The increase in the monetary policy rate to 9.25% also result to the high interest rate on mortgage loan of the financial institution. Other stringent condition of the financial institutions scare real estate developers away from obtaining loan from them. This affect the supply of real estate in the country. 3. Inflation; The rate of inflation in the country today is quite alarming. Co-peratives which assist its members in the development of real estate through contribution is hampered by this problems. On saving their money in a bank account, they would discover that the money would not be enough for development as initially budgeted due to inflation. This

    Uk Housing Market

    The learning of economics begins with the needs and wants of materials. Everyone needs basic things to live their life: food, air, water and shelter. With the advancement of science and technology people desires become more sophisticated, now they don’t need just food they need “ Dominos pizza” or “Mc Donald Burger”, they want to wear designer wears, they don’t like just a room to live in they want buildings or their own home. More the variety increases and become more refined, the economy becomes more composite too. The study of supply and demand, basic concepts of economics is fundamental in today’s property market because even a single economic decision can change the market greatly. “The interplay of demand (the behaviour of buyers) and supply (the behaviour of sellers) determines the quantity of the good produced and the price at which it bought and sold.” David Begg, 2005. The impact of Supply and Demand could be influenced by many factors. “Demand describes the behaviour of buyers at every price” (David Begg, 2005). The demand in rental market increases to buy property if price goes down, however sellers will loss on their houses hence supply will decrease. If the price of property increases, consumers selling their property would make profit, increasing supply though unaffordability of consumer will make demand to fall.…

    * Durability - Real estate is durable. A building can last for decades or even centuries, and the land underneath it is practically indestructible. Because of this, real estate markets are modeled as a stock/flow market. About 98% of supply consists of the stock of existing houses, while about 2% consists of the flow of new development. The stock of real estate supply in any period is determined by the existing stock in the previous period, the rate of deterioration of the existing stock, the rate of renovation of the existing stock, and the flow of new development in the current period. The effect of real estate market adjustments tend to be mitigated by the relatively large stock of existing buildings.…

    Property Value Drivers

    The real estate sector in Tanzania is currently still underdeveloped. Over many years, the sector has had marginal contribution to the country’s GDP. However, despite its low share of GDP, real estate sector is regarded to have great potential to attract more investments following the institutional reforms. Although the last two decades of economic reforms have witnessed a sharp increase in commercial real estate development projects in major cities, this study considers that the sector is not growing at the pace that is practically and economically justified. The study presupposes that, there are some value drivers for real estate development which are yet to be exploited to realise the full potential of the sector and to enhance its attractiveness to both local and foreign investors. This reasoning takes note of Porter’s point of view which emphasises that the essence of the decision is often not the financial benefits of the alternatives but strategic issues that are hard to quantify. This study is set out to assess the real estate sector in the context of two theoretical models (i.e. diamond models). The first model was developed by Michael Porter, and the second model was developed by Poorvu and Cruikshank. The two models are used in this study to assess the real estate market framework and the potential driving forces for the sector growth. The general objectives of this study is first, to explore the key existing and potential driving forces which could stimulate real estate development in Tanzania and of which property developers should be conscious when making property…
