Low cost housing

[earthlyken]

Hello..

Question mga sir..ano bang meaning nito?

Ibig sabihin ba nito na tinipid yung quality or quantity of materials na ginamit sa pagpapagawa ng bahay?

Ano poba mga dapat bantayan sa mga gumagawa aside sa nag pepetiks sila?

TIA

It has nothing to do with pepetiks(petiks dibe meaning tutulog tulog)...low cost means, well low cost, they use cheaper materials, location wise, cheap na area malayo sa sibilisasyon o malayo sa priceier na lugar.

Low cost pertains to the purchase pricing of the housing unit. Usually this is attained by the following:
- Cheap land location
- Minimal frills in finishing
- economies of scale (row housing w similar designs)

low cost housing means the target market is low income bracket

Low cost housing is good. Provided that they WON'T compromise the safety of the dwellers.

Just be prepared to listen to a speech on how hard his life is, and how unjust the accusations he had been receiving in the last Presidential Elections were. :D

Here's some developers that provide affordable or low cost housing (condos, and house and lots):
- Amaia (Ayala Land)
- Camella
- Sun Trust (Megaworld)
- Phinma Properties
- Pro Friends

Most of those building house and lots are in the Cavite area AFAIK.

Usually kung bibili ka sa mga developer ng house eh pag sinabi mong "low cost" ay malaki ang posibilidad na gumamit sila ng mga sub-standard na mga bakal, semento at mga pako. Pati na rin sa pagdesign nila eh tinitidnan nila kung saan sila makakatipid. Kung tapos na yung bahay na binebenta nila at yun ang makikita mo ay hindi mo mapapansin na maliliit yung mga poste at bakal na ginamit. Noong ako ay naghahanap ng bahay na mabibili sa mga subdivision eh yan ang mga tinididnan ko ng mabuti, lahat ng napuntahan ko eh ang liliit ng poste at yung mga bakal na ginamit, considering na 2 storey yung house.

Halos lahat ng house shopper eh sa itsura nagcoconcentrate, laging naneneglect yung tibay ng structure.

In short, I ended up building my own house.

well they don't care naman if the houses start falling apart within a year

what matters is they get paid by govt home financing companies

Hindi ko na nga sinama sa listahan eh. :D

It's a given that defects do come out and developers are required to repair them... albeit it is quite costly and really throws developers off their budget schedule. Its not only about finding the developer with no defects but one who is responsive in repairing them just as well.

The name of the game is for the construction people to get things right the first time around and forget the "rush" jobs; From what i have experienced so far, its usually it's the rush to meet deadlines, lack of full coordination between design and engineering, (or a stupid ass project manager) that results in defects.

In most cases defects are not related to structural integrity but with finishing (superficial cracks, leaks, poor water fixture quality etc). With regard to steel and concrete used, you don't buy substandard products since these basic suppliers are always the established cement and steel companies. You can save some by choosing concrete that attains its designed load bearing strength after a longer curing period but you have to balance this with your construction time table (which is dictated also by your sales). If they adhere to the design, construction and the proper curing periods as specified by the materials and technology used, defects can be minimized greatly. If ever, you'll find the cheap materials in the finishing used (countertops/cabinets, flooring, wood, lighting and plumbing fixtures).

How do most developers try to bring down cost? More units, lesser size is one common thing you would see with some of the players. Also, developers will not get paid by the banks, Pag-ibig, etc. until they comply with all the documentation and that the unit is turned over to and accepted by the buyer.

Ganun pala meaning ng low cost housing..they use sub standard materials..just like what happen sa the ruby towers dati..konting lindol ay gumiba agad..

Question here is that pano natin malalaman kung tama ba sa "mm" kapal ng bar ang gagamitin? At kung gaano kalalim ung kailangan i hukaw para sa fondatin ng bahay..lets say 2story house..would a construction foreman knows it? Or kapa kapaan?

^^

it's too literal to define it that way

low cost housing projects are built on cheap land

Developers get tax perks when they construct low-cost housing.

If i were building a house, i'd still go the way of getting an contractor or at least a licensed engineer as consultant at the very least. Don't rely on the foreman solely as i'd liken it to having my car fixed by a tabi-tabi mechanic with no formal training... hit or miss ka dyan and i wouldn't bet something as valuable as my house on that. Dyan ka magkaka-"Ruby Towers".

I've seen my friend do their house extension (two floors) with only a construction workers and foreman, ayun, humiwalay yung isang wall dahil sa maling paggawa ng foundation. Medyo panget din kasi yun lupa sa area nila (Antipolo) from what i know.

Yep, that's given by the BOI for projects with units costing P 3.0M and below. Even with all the condos going up, there is still a backlog in actual housing versus the population. The only thing is what segment that backlog is at and whether that segment can afford housing or qualify to finance their home purchases.

[chua_riwap]

meron din bang low cost condos?

[uls]

^^^

di ko sure ha pero noong panahon ni Marcos may housing project si Imelda yung tinatawag na BLISS? tama ba?
