A lot are being knocked down and the land sold, others that are in quite good condition can sometimes be bought by the occupier quite cheaply if they can afford it.Leannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17288635333245893039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8600056022316943149.post-52416005509782179062009-06-23T23:01:21.825+01:002009-06-23T23:01:21.825+01:00Are these going to be council houses or privately ...Are these going to be council houses or privately owned ?<br /><br />That shot clearly shows why people will probably be throwing a party in celebration, once all the disruption is gone !! :-)<br /><br />We have subsidised housing here in Reno.. I''ll have to get out and take some photos. I think they call it 'Section 8 housing.' <br /><br />Back in New Zealand they have State Housing and Council Housing. With the State housing, you can be in a program where part of your rent goes into a savings scheme and can be used as a down deposit on a house later. It used to be that you could have the option of buying the state house that you were living in ...not sure if that is still the case..Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17109531002159599556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8600056022316943149.post-87231840889102348392009-06-23T22:10:53.484+01:002009-06-23T22:10:53.484+01:00Very interesting.

Like you I think there's a great need for housing of this type and I raise my hat, that's if I wore one, to Ramsey Town Commissioners for getting it spot on with this development on the Pondi. The new houses look fantastic and are a great improvement on what was there previously which had come to the end of their days.mannanannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8600056022316943149.post-9444657710719735012009-06-23T16:19:26.641+01:002009-06-23T16:19:26.641+01:00Looking forward to seeing the end result!Looking forward to seeing the end result!Esther Garvihttp://esthergarvi.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8600056022316943149.post-2056855737933323112009-06-23T16:14:08.308+01:002009-06-23T16:14:08.308+01:00Seems everyone has an opinion about our housing.

The problem is, most of the low-cost housing is outside Metro Manila, which results in very high transportation expenses.

Frequently, as part of the approval process for new construction, the developer has to allocate a certain percentage to affordable residences.<br /><br />I'm not sure if that makes the rest of it "unaffordable" but it all seems to get bought and occupied, at least until very recently. <br /><br />And yes, I have to agree with commentators that noted that what's being built in Ramsey is far nicer than what we typically see.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8600056022316943149.post-3723482344819742302009-06-23T12:12:04.812+01:002009-06-23T12:12:04.812+01:00What a great way to help the local economy.
