Abstract
This study aims to clarify the condition of the successive management of the small-scale condominium and explore the possibility for its sustainable management. In particular, the study focuses on the difference of management, major repair process, and scope of entrustment of management, between condominium and co-operative housing.For this, questionnaires and interviews were conducted to the small-scale condominium associations. The analysis has revealed that: 1) the proportion of associations of cooperative housing that select the self-management is higher than in condominium. 2) In co-operative housing, the general meeting is held for the discussion about the agenda. However, in the case of condominium, it is held in order to obtain the approval. 3) It is necessary to improve the management based on a rotating system and sharing information about the management between the residents, in order to raise individual awareness of responsibility. 4) It is important to create a system that supports selfmanagement for compensating expertise.
