Housing
Botswana's Housing Affordability Gap
A visual representation of the pressure points between household income, mortgage access and formal supply.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Research context and principal assessment.
This research examines the widening gap between household affordability, mortgage access and formal housing supply in Botswana. It considers how land delivery, construction costs, lending criteria and market information influence the structure of residential demand and the feasibility of new housing investment.
KEY FINDINGS
- Formal housing supply remains poorly aligned with the income distribution of prospective buyers.
- Mortgage qualification requirements exclude a significant share of otherwise stable households.
- Serviced land availability and construction inputs materially influence final unit affordability.
- More effective housing delivery requires coordinated finance, land and infrastructure interventions.
