Housing Production and Housing Policy in Harare, Zimbabwe

Abstract

:In recent years, the government in Zimbabwe has continued its pre-independence housing policy attempts to control, directly or indirectly, the production of housing for all income groups. This article, which is part of an overall review of housing, production, and exchange in Harare, Zimbabwe, summarizes available evidence on housing production and the effects of government intervention on housing markets. The assumptions on which housing policy are based are analyzed and the outcome of housing strategies designed to increase the production of housing and relieve constraints on supply are assessed. Sufficient evidence is not available for systematic study of all forms of house production by all income groups; topics for future research are identified.
