South Africa is one of the countries in the world that has
delivered the highest number of houses to the poor through various
delivery mechanisms. This was done to fulfil her vision of adequate
housing for all, as reflected in the National Housing Policy
framework. Over the last seventeen years, the African National
Congress led government has vigorously ensured that essential
services were made available to advance the lives of the people.
Since 1994 about 3 million houses have been delivered, providing
more than 13 million people with secure homes. One of the housing
strategies, as contained in the National Housing Policy is to
provide subsidy assistance to low income groups to enable them to
become home owners and improve their quality of life. The Housing
Subsidy Scheme, has to date helped reduce the housing backlog. This
publication advances knowledge on the post occupancy experience of
housing subsidy beneficiaries, by exploring what beneficiaries do
with the subsidized houses; if the subsidized houses have improved
their lives etc. At a general level, the study contributes to
efforts at improving low-income housing delivery in South Africa.
