 STRENGTHS WEAKNESSES

SWOT ANALYSIS
★ Transparency of the market (Oliveira e
Carvalho, 2003); ★ Breach of confidence of some owners in short
term (Oliveira and Carvalho, 2003) ;
★ Confidence between Public Administration
and citizens, owners and developers (Nunes ★ Weak dialogue and negotiation power, due to
da Silva,2002); no regulation or practice of landowners’
participation. (Rodrigues, Condessa, Sá, 2010)
★ Able to eliminate the monopoly rent on
private agents by the construction rights
definitions (Lobo,2011);

★ Very beneficial in the medium and long

term for both ends.

OPPORTUNITIES
★ A technical reinforcement to deal with LR;
★ Cohesion Improvement between different public
bodies;
★ Systematic data collection on real estate markets
for landowners, municipal authorities and investors;
★ Cultural changes for a more open relationship
between landowners, public authorities and urban
development. (Rodrigues, Condessa, Sá,2010).
THREATS
★ Requires an administrative machine agile
and robust in technical and financial
resources (Alves Correia,1989);
★ Heavy and long process, it requires control
mechanisms to prevent arbitrariness,
corruption, and agents pressure.resources
(Lobo,1989).
 CONSIDERATIONS
FINAL
● It is possible to have close relationships between the use of compensatory instruments and the
effects on the real estate market and quality of urban policies.

● It should have an strategic component for technical decision support to adapt to opportunities
or changes not foreseen by the plan. (Rodrigues, 2014).

● LR policies should overlap the conflict of interests on the territory of urban intervention
through instruments to respond to social development needs. They can promote an efficient
and sustainable use of cities and an equitable redistribution among citizens and a better relationship
between land and real estate markets. (Rodrigues, 2014).

● LR application in Portugal has three main issues that should be resolved: i) proactive
administration; ii) detailed regulation; iii) incentives policy. (Rodrigues, M, Condessa B, Sá A.M,
2010).

● The practice of urban management in Portugal requires a paradigm shift on the public-private
relationship, with a focus on converting governing structures into governance instruments,
mediating the behavior of private agents (Rodrigues, 2014).
