Urban LandMark publishes guide on urban land

 Stephen Berrisford

 

Urban LandMark has released a guide to managing urban land. Stephen Berrisford from Urban LandMark believes that the recent demolitions in Lenasia are a symptom of the inability of government to manage the land market around subsidy houses. Research done by Urban LandMark shows that the title deed system has broken down as a result illegal sales and corruption are able to flourish. This is compounded by weak governance systems in municipalities and provinces and the fact that members of the public are not educated and experienced in negotiating their war around urban land markets, and so fall victim to scams. Stephen Berrisford paid us a visit in studio. For more info contact 012 342 7636. Or visit www.urbanmark.org.za to download a copy of th guide.
