Rising housing costs have negative effects on low-income households. In addition, inefficient use/consumption of resources poses a risk to the environment. In the future, it is necessary to improve the sustainability and lifetime affordability performance in the housing to avoid the unwanted social, economic and environmental impacts that arise from the housing. This study aims to propose a conceptual model based on Life Cycle Costing (LCC) as a solution to the housing problem which is one of people’s most basic needs to meet the sheltering for lower income groups through the ambiguity of low-cost housing and affordable housing.

Housing affordability of different income groups in turkey: regional comparison
Aksoy, Esma; Özdemir Sarı, Özgül Burcu; Department of City and Regional Planning (2017)
Housing affordability has been a major topic of interest both for researchers and policy makers in many countries. However, in the Turkish case, research on housing affordability is scarce. The problem of housing has usually been considered as a quantitative deficiency problem in Turkey, and for many decades any other dimension of the problem is neglected. Increasing the housing stock in numbers has always been given priority by the Turkish governments. This tendency to support new housing production has co...
Housing Layout Reconsidered In Societal Context: A Case Study In Switzerland
Lawrence, Roderick J. (Middle East Technical University, Faculty of Architecture, 1996-1-01)
Housing units are material products of society that define and delimit domestic space for households. They provide shelter and protection for daily activities. The fact that housing units in the same society have quite different shapes and sizes, and that they are built with a range of construction materials suggests that, beyond pragmatic factors, others are of at least equal importance in determining their layout, construction, and meaning. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an understanding of those c...
Changing economies of scale in housing production as related to supply and demand factors
Nurel, Semin; Türel, Ali; Department of City and Regional Planning (2015)
Studies investigating housing production tendencies in cities report that, due to the increase in car ownership and growing concern for healthy living environment, conventional apartment building, built on single parcels has become inadequate to meet households' housing preferences. As a result, demand for living in housing estates, which provide preferred amenities has increased. There are indications that income elasticity of housing demand has increased, implying that such housing is considered as luxury...
HOUSING AND LIVING ENVIRONMENT DEPRIVATION IN TURKEY
Güven, Aydan Ege; Özdemir Sarı, Özgül Burcu; Department of City Planning (2023-1-20)
Housing and living environment deprivation, although being a concept that cannot be agreed upon in its definition and measurement, is generally considered the accumulation of fundamental deficiencies in housing and the living environment. This thesis states that the housing supply in Turkey does not serve the needs of the households that diversify in terms of quality, therefore it is necessary to determine the deprivation levels of housing and living environment experienced by households in varying ways. Re...
Housing crediting and urban development in Turkey.
Kasar, Cere; Keskinok, H. Çağatay.; Department of Urban Policy Planning and Local Governments (2019)
One of the most significant problems in developing countries relates to housing finance. Long-term housing assets are securitized during economic recessions, and the use of real estate as collateral to obtain bank credits creates fictitious growth in the economy. In the vicious circle, where most investments are made into the construction sector every year, it is the rural areas that strive to develop around the cities that suffer the most. The present study puts forward a good practice model to steer prope...
