By Yeshi Alelgn

Master's Thesis from the year 2020 in the subject Sociology - Habitation and Urban Sociology, grade: A, Ethiopian Civil Service University (development economics and management), course: development economics, language: English, abstract: This paper evaluates the socioeconomic impacts of the condominium housing program among the beneficiary households using a cross-sectional data from a sample of 398 households who own the houses, in Addis Ababa specifically in Bloe and Yeka Sub Cities and 16 key informant interviews. To analyze the impact of housing program on consumption and social capital multiple linear regressions and logistic regressions were employed. And to cheek the model fitness multicolinearity (VIF), hetroscedasticity and link test methods are used. Nowadays, housing development is a hot issue in Ethiopia and more specifically in the capital Addis Ababa. The housing development program is designed in order to meaningfully solve the housing demand and other complex urban problems. It is believed that the program promotes the urban residents' income and saving capacity other than reducing the housing problem. This study assessed the affordability of condominium houses and the socioeconomic impact of the housing development program among beneficiary households. And finally would help the decision makers and implementers to know the impact of down payment for condominium housing on household's consumption and the impact of condominium housing program on social capital of beneficiary households and draw lessons from experience. In addition, it can also be used as a base and reference for other researchers to conduct further study in this area.
