“…Jacomit & Granja (2011) found that as a typology is developed to satisfy families with different profiles, market research and POE are important to take care of their individual critical needs. Recent studies of POE (for example: Agyekum et al,2016;Hirning et al, 2012;Mustafa, 2017;Osei-poku, 2016) also supported that the fundamental concepts of POE stress the importance of feedback data from the building users. Therefore, it is important to incorporate occupants' feedback in POE as it benefits both the building and the residents.…”

“…Such assessment is reliable by adopting Post Occupancy Evaluation (POE) as the approach and the best tool to assess safety performance in low-cost housing. Mustafa (2017) highlighted that POE provides enormous potential for improving the performance of a building when using occupants as a benchmark in evaluation. POE encompasses a comprehensive review of the building details covering the technical performance, users' satisfactions, project delivery process and recommendation for the action.…”

“…Therefore, the assessment of safety in low-cost housing is highly related to the users' behaviour and occupants' feedback. As supported by Mustafa (2017), the purpose of a building is defeated if its users are not satisfied by the overall building performance.…”

The aspects in a completed residence or house should able to enhance the quality of a building as well as to provide safety to the occupants. It has become increasingly important to evaluate housing property for many reasons. The attempt to enhance the aspect of safety planning in developing low cost houses is still neglected and one of the reasons that may contribute to this factor is due to the low price value. Hence, this paper emphasizes the application of Post Occupancy Evaluation (POE) that incorporates participation from the occupants as a tool to assess the safety performance of the Malaysian low-cost housing. The main aim of this study is to develop a framework of POE integrated with safety elements for Malaysian LCH. The inspection survey and occupants' satisfaction survey were carried out to 24 low-cost housing projects located in the federal territory of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The correlation result revealed that all attributes between the safety performance and the occupants' satisfaction had a significant relationship. This also manifests the occupants' feedbacks which were fed into the assessment of the housing safety performance.

“…According to [9] POE is the collection and review of user satisfaction, space utilization, and resource consumption of a completed constructed facility after occupation to identify important occupant and building issues. This information can help architect, designers, and policymakers adequately mitigate these issues in future construction to provide a much better user experience.…”

This paper evaluates the livability and convenience of social housing in Liberia from the residents' perspectives. Using residents' appraisal from several social housing projects in the suburb of Monrovia, residents' satisfaction index with regards to the aesthetic, durability and comfort of their homes were measured. It also assessed their overall living environment which includes access to road and basic service facilities such as hospitals, schools, shopping and recreational centers. How secured and comfortable do they feel within their homes? What are the driving factors that led them to acquire their homes? Data were collected from 662 household heads from three housing estates in the suburb of Monrovia using the stratified systematic sampling method and analyzed using IBM SPSS descriptive statistic. Results show that while occupants of public housing are satisfied with certain aspects of their homes, they are generally unsatisfied with their living environment. This investigation is detailed to inform architects, designers and policymakers' decisions toward social housing in Liberia. It looks at the underlining challenges affecting the improvement of social housing from the end users' perspective and how these challenges can be mitigated to meet consumers' satisfaction and make them part of the design process and policymaking.
