The residential opportunity is obvious.Investors,financiersanddevelopersunderstandthatthemarketisripeforinnovation that will respond to the needs and capacities of the majority. Governments are also ready for this change, and are clearly open to proposals that will address what seem like intractable problems when tackled alone. As innovation in other markets has demonstrated, it is the disruptive business model that will alter the terrain and create new opportunities for growth. In the housing sector, this is about engaging with the reality of affordability and delivering to the market.More concerted efforts are needed to establish affordable housing and slum upgrading at the scales needed. 3rd Annual Affordable Housing Africa comes at an opportune moment providing a platform for all key stakeholders to engage at a globallevel,mobilisepartnerstoredefinetheroleofhousingintoday’snewurbanagenda.

The vacated blocks and informal structures on the three sites were demolished immediately after they were vacated and the land was cleared to make way for the construction of Phase 2 of the project. The purpose of this approach is ensure that further land is unlocked for future phases of the development. The last remaining blocks will then be demolished, making way for the implementation of the remainder of Phase 2.Each unit within the CRU is 40m2 in floor area, has 2 bedrooms, 1 common room (Kitchenette)and1bathroom.Thereareelectricalpointsandlightfittingsineach room and the bathroom and common room has a washing machine point and stove point respectively. The unit is also provided with a solar geyser and an electrical“ReadyBoard”forwhichthetenantcanpurchaseelectricityhis/herunit.The allocation process has been driven by the practical consideration that without the required land, the project cannot go ahead. The allocations have also been done in accordance with the applicable policy criteria and in consultation with the legitimate Project Steering Committee.Construction of Phase 1 has been completed and all units were fully occupied in December 2015. It is anticipated that construction of Phase 2 will begin by mid-2017.
