Community formation utilizing investment management-type housing with combined rentals

reality and potential of independent tree-type mixed function housing with continued　residence by owner families

Abstract

This study targeted housing with combined rentals jointly constructed with rental housing. It clarified construction conditions, effects on urban areas as well as uses and application and residents and the reality of the neighboring community, and investigated planning conditions and future potential. The results of the study showed an increasing trend around 40% of condominiums in Higashi-Tamagawa/Okuzawa. There was some rental of ‘One More Home’ properties as proposed 20 years ago but, at present, there have been no changes of residence for owner families. The existence of owners who have been resident for a long time links to consideration for residents, the neighborhood and the local area. Housing with combined rentals which has created a buffer for owner families has the potential to be a buffer for the area.
