ABSTRACT
This conclusion presents some closing thoughts covered in the preceding chapters of this book. Core-unit development has several advantages in a social justice-based approach to housing. It first facilitates progressive construction, allowing families to invest in housing solutions at their own pace, as their needs, aspirations and available resources change. It guarantees that family's investments in their homes reflect their priorities and financial possibilities at every stage. Then, it facilitates the integration of informal companies in post-occupancy interventions. It offers a wide range of products with different finishes, construction features, spatial conditions, stages of consolidation and prices, it increases household mobility. It provides an appropriate balance between individual agency and collective agency. Finally, it concludes that buying a fully finished, complete house is a practice foreign to many traditional rural residents and new urbanities with a rural background.
