Summary
Collaborative housing models provide some form of collectivism and community ownership connected to the ownership and use of the housing. Initiatives aim to address problems of housing affordability and quality, as well as provide other social benefits to residents and the surrounding neighborhood through the provision of intermediate tenure between full ownership and renting. As housing pressures grow across Europe and internationally interest in this form of housing has grown. However, there is currently a lack of evidence regarding the extent to which these initiatives are able to provide affordability for residents and other social benefits in the medium to long term whilst respecting the rights of individuals. CollabHOME aims to understand how collaborative housing tenures are performing in operation, regarding these goals of housing affordability for residents of the initiative and other social benefits, and in relation to existing legal and policy frameworks. There is a growing body of research exploring the processes through which such housing projects are developed, their relationship to the state and the social relation of living within such communities. This project will contribute to this field through examining the maintenance phase of these projects and understanding the way that tenure is structured in these models. CollabHOME will conduct nine case studies of collaborative housing initiatives across three national contexts in order to model the inflection points of interaction of collaborative housing initiatives with prevailing legal, policy and social frameworks to understand how and if affordability and other benefits are maintained. It will also map housing tenure types internationally according to a model of rights and responsibilities and collateevidence of maintenance of affordability and long-term goals. Through these activities, CollabHOME will produce valuable evidence on the performance of collaborative housing over time.
