Decision Modeling for Local Housing Development: ‘Strategic Value’ and other Social Impact Measures
Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering research seminar series

Abstract
Acquisition and redevelopment of foreclosed properties by
community organizations helps to mitigate the social
impacts of foreclosures on neighborhoods and residents. Social impacts can be measured in a variety of ways:
(a) Strategic value of foreclosed property locations
(b) Averted lost value to proximate properties
Models can estimate magnitudes of such effects to identify
potential acquisition candidates and social impacts of
alternative development strategies. Application of models to a local case study demonstrates how these measures can be used in practice.
