The SuCasa brand echoes a sound of hope and re–assurance. The continuous increase in demand for our country’s housing infrastructural asset presents a real challenge to the government. The various interventions from the government and private real estate managers and other home providers have not sufficiently, addressed the menace. The government’s call for public–private partnership engagement is commendable, but what is required at present is the state–of–the art technology and economic model capable of furnishing the housing infrastructural deficit gap with the needed units of affordable homes equally accessible to every nook and cranny.
The housing infrastructural deficit gap of 1.8million units implies that about 85,000 units of annual housing demand is impending –putting the market scissors of demand and supply at a non-equilibrium scale, where demand outweighs supply. In fact, the consequences are dire. To adequately, bridge this gap, and factor the ordinary Ghanaian’s purchasing abilities to own a home into the solution trajectory, requires pragmatic innovations. The private sector, usually driven by the profit maximization motive has not successfully addressed the housing demand index of the low to middle income earners of the economy. This is a worrying trend, if our resolve to providing affordable housing for all the citizenry is to be gauged on a realistic scale.
Many factors including the global economic crisis and its direct ramifications on rising cost of living and other debilitating consequence such as high cost of building materials on one hand; land management issues, challenges with easy and convenient access to domestic credit facilities, fraudulent intermediate brokers (Agents), rapid population growth and urbanization, and increasing middle means on the other – all account for the opposition to society’s inability to completely nip the problem in the bud.
Here, when we talk about innovation, we are addressing strategic innovation, technological and scientific deficits in our social intervention schemes already on the roll out, and most importantly, engaging with the right economic model to effectively arrest the challenge. Incorporating all these into the solution benchmark has evoked the thinking, passion, and the evolution of the SuCasa Affordable Housing Scheme on the market with such an unbelievable practical and pragmatic initiative, both on the side of planning, technological invention and economic affordability of the solution to the country’s current housing infrastructural development deficit.
