Market studies, feasibility assessments and comparative analysis for housing projects, programmes and policies. PhD-level research methodology applied to the practical questions facing developers, agencies, NGOs and financial institutions working in housing.
Most housing studies come back with the same recommendations: more finance, more partnerships, more capacity. Generic, hard to act on. My research is built differently — from primary data, regulatory documents and stakeholder interviews, with methods that survive peer review.
A PhD in Real Estate from the University of Pretoria, ongoing academic work on green building certification and housing finance, and direct experience advising agencies, NGOs and developers across sub-Saharan Africa.
A focused study on a single market or instrument.
A complete market analysis with primary data.
Multi-country or multi-region comparative research.
Pricing reflects standard scope. Local and international market rates considered in final quotes.
Same research methods I use in peer-reviewed academic work. Your study can stand up to ministers, boards, donors and reviewers.
Sub-Saharan African housing markets are not US or European housing markets. The research is grounded in local data, local regulations, local realities.
A useful study is one that supports decisions. I write for the people who will act on the findings, not for the archives.
