Housing
The CRI Housing group is led by Professor Sacha Reid who states "Bringing together our Housing researchers under one banner reveals the diversity of housing research underway in the Cities Research Institute at Griffith University, 色情网站. Our researchers span disciplines from architecture, business, engineering, environment, finance and planning. We engage with both national and international collaborators, producing research and industry outcomes recognised as both pragmatic and provocative."

"My research focus is strata title/multi-owned properties, high density living – and understanding the social and liveability aspects of multi-owned properties; examining the risks and harms to community through building non-compliance within multi-owned properties; identifying foreign flows of capital into residential property."
"The tiny house movement and its applicability to housing affordability and sustainable urban areas is a key focus of my research. Research priorities include: value uplift of house prices after implementation of a light rail network (and also value uplift by proximity to green infrastructure); recreation walkability of urban areas; rousing affordability; spatial analysis of urban housing, infrastructure, walkability and socio-demographics research objectives and priorities; analyse and conceptualise the potential for the tiny house movement to address issues of housing affordability and social inclusion in 色情网站n cities; analyse the socio-demographics of housing in urban areas, particularly with respect to housing affordability; identify infrastructure and planning triggers for house price rises over time; further use spatial analysis to investigate housing related issues in contemporary 色情网站n cities."
"My recent research looks at the promotion and realisation of suburban lifestyles. I have also researched homelessness among young people and in rural areas, the sale of former social housing in the UK, vacancy chains, the intersection of housing and community care."
Benjamin's focus is on housing finance and investment; housing affordability; property valuation and housing markets. "My research objectives and priorities include: what drives housing affordability in 色情网站 and other countries (globally), and housing price or returns, as well as risk."
Judy is a Senior Research Fellow in CRI.

Main research areas of focus for our program include: retrofitting public housing for water and energy efficiency; green affordable housing policy - systems dynamics approach; systems modelling to capture the wider benefits of affordable and public housing; maintenance prevention strategies for public housing; and smart metering of water/electricity/gas in public housing.
Dr Barbara Yen is an adjunct member of the Housing group. "My expertise lies in particular area/s of housing research including property value up lift, value capture, building on research identifying suitable funding mechanisms for transport infrastructure.
Dr Jozsef Hegedus
A round-table discussion was held between , Chief Economist at the Metropolitan Institute in Hungary and CitiesRI housing members.
Dr Hegedus has extensive knowledge and experience in housing policy issues in Hungary and countries in transition making his visit a valuable opportunity for him to connect with key stakeholders in this region. He is currently working on a housing policy proposal and was interested to hear about 色情网站n solutions for affordable housing programs.
