Some people think that buildings such as flats and houses should be designed to last a long time. Others believe that it is more important to provide accommodation quickly and cheaply. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion. Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

Accommodation issues are a great concern for almost everyone today, as we see the prices of those properties

speedily, particularly in large metropolitan cities. While some might argue that the factors of rapid

timescales

and inexpensiveness should be prioritized, I tend to believe that a building for human habitation ought to

last

as long as possible. On the one hand, the proponents of providing

as unemployment or economic instability. It is true that the cost of living in many urban areas has been extremely high over the past few decades and most citizens would feel more pleasant if they could pay off loans for an affordable

house

or apartment. For these people, it is much better to own a reasonably priced

house

rather than be homeless. My uncle Tony,

On the other hand

vital properties should be constructed to

as long as possible, which might even be a real saving scheme in the long term. The supporters of

viewpoint highlight that buying cheap accommodation could later end up at a huge cost due to low construction quality as well as

For example
