| dc.description.abstract | This study assesses the performance of the Integrated Housing Development Program/Condominium Housing Construction Project in Addis Ababa City against its objectives. IHDP is complex and challenging program. It necessitates huge resources from the government; and also requires efficient resource management system. The houses being constructed are expected to be of low cost or affordable to the low income group and good quality. However, does the program achieve its objectives? The qualitative research methods specifically descriptive research method applied. Survey method was used to collect data. The target populations were condominium houses completed and transferred to beneficiaries within Addis Ababa. To select sample respondents from the target population’s simple random sampling techniques were used. Although the government set low cost houses to low and middle income people but the results of my survey shows low income people were not benefiting from this program, due to problems in both registration and distribution process, increase in the price of houses due to poor workmanship and using poor quality materials. The survey result also shows that the houses constructed are of poor quality and fixed with substandard or poor quality materials. The other factor that makes the houses unaffordable to low income people was price increase due to delay i.e.it took from one up to one and half years to construct and distribute condominium houses. The other issue in construction and distribution of condominium houses is corruption. The government of Ethiopia is planning to continue the condominium housing construction project by itself using a single bank CBE. The government is involved starting from design preparation, awarding to contractors and distribution of houses to people. It also fixes prices of both inputs and houses. In general the idea of condominium houses is noble but its implementation has many problems. Key words: IHDP, Condominium houses, low and middle income people, government objectives, affordability, quality | en_US |
