Abstract

ABSTRACT Housing is crucial for realising the basic requirements of people; it provides a shelter and people spend most of their daily activities in the locality. This study seeks to examine the quality attributes influencing the value of housing and their effect on housing prices according to generation cohorts and affordable housing prices. Twenty-one housing quality factors are first identified by a literature search, with a questionnaire survey ranking safety considerations, air quality, location choice, house ventilation, and accessibility to transportation services to be the highest influence. A further factor analysis reveals five major underlying dimensions of these attributes vis-à-vis locational qualities, values and lifestyles, the availability of public amenities, surrounding environment and product uniqueness, and accessibility. The study’s contribution lies in its examination of the housing dimensions affecting quality of life along with providing insights and guidelines for emerging property developers in planning housing development projects in Malaysia and beyond.

分析马来西亚巴生谷地区所需的住房质量

摘要住房对于实现人们的基本需求至关重要；它提供了一个避难所，人们的大部分日常活动都在当地度过。本研究试图根据世代群体和经济适用房价格来检验影响住房价值的质量属性及其对房价的影响。首先通过文献检索确定了21个住房质量因素，问卷调查将安全考虑因素、空气质量、位置选择、房屋通风和交通服务的可及性列为影响最大的因素。进一步的因素分析揭示了这些属性的五个主要潜在维度，即位置品质、价值观和生活方式、公共设施的可用性、周围环境和产品的独特性以及可及性。该研究的贡献在于它对影响生活质量的住房维度进行了研究，并为马来西亚及其他地区的新兴房地产开发商规划住房开发项目提供了见解和指导。
