Abstract

The term inclusion describes how workers feel about their workplaces and how much a corporation values each individual worker and gives them the opportunity to contribute significantly to the company’s development. By embracing inclusion in real estate practices, real estate professionals can better understand the unique needs and preferences of different segments of the population, leading to more tailored and inclusive contributions. However, it appears obvious that real estate sector continues to struggle with a lack of inclusion in its practices. For instance, real estate sector is one of the fields where female and other groups such as poor, disabled, minors, etc. are currently under represented. The aim of the study was to assess inclusion in real estate practices amongst real property valuers. A survey used questionnaires in collecting data directly from the field amongst the respondents. Simple random sampling technique was applied, and the collected data were processed with SPSS and analyzed using frequency and percentage distribution, mean and spearman’s rank correlation, ANOVA, Relative Importance Index (RII) and Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA). Results show that most of the real property valuers in Kicukiro District are quite aware of inclusion in real estate practices. However, there is still need for further sensitization on what inclusion is all about. This will aid everyone coming on board in accepting inclusion as a good strategy among real property valuers. It also revealed that most of them always apply inclusion in real estate practices. However, there is still need for further encouragement on the importance on frequent application of inclusion in real estate practices. From results, the study can conclude that property development is the highest aspect of real estate practices where inclusion is been adopted. However, the presented results show that most respondents gave a yes answer to the aspects of property development at 87.1%, property management at 83.9%, property valuation and property taxation at 80.6% as the aspects of real estate practices where inclusion is been adopted by real property valuers. The study recommends that, there should be creation of partnerships and teamwork within public and private organizations, and other participants which will deal with driving inclusion real estate practices.
