majority <strong>of</strong> homeowners <strong>and</strong> public rental tenants (56% 53% respectively)<br />
acknowledged the inevitability <strong>of</strong> the nail-house phenomenon. This is somewhat<br />
expected, given their possession <strong>of</strong> tangible property assets in the case <strong>of</strong> homeowners<br />
in particular, <strong>and</strong> their legally protected, albeit inadequate, entitlement to compensation<br />
upon their house demolition. What is interesting is the large number <strong>of</strong> private tenants<br />
(49%), mostly migrants, who are also thinking in the same way even though they hardly<br />
receive compensation upon neighbourhood redevelopment <strong>and</strong> demolition <strong>of</strong> their rental<br />
dwellings.<br />
