Abstract
The purpose of this study was to explore the attitudes about the management service charge in multi-family housing. Recently, increasing needs of urban families in residential housing management services were apparent in many studies, but the way that they charge for the management services was not dear. Research method was social survey with questionnaire from 484 residents and 84 housing managers of multi-family housing in Seoul and new town area. Research results showed that residents recognized the management services should be free of charge or imposed actual expenses, but managers recognized the management services as charged services. To provide efficient housing management services for residents in multi-family housing, human resources should be inputted. Therefore, this study suggested that the participation of residents in housing management service is recommendable as a way of lessen the economic burden of management service charge, but also to have an opportunity to interest in their community activities.
