6.4. Block IV. Household characteristics
This block is used to record the household characteristics, such as household income one year ago, type of physical building, status of residence ownership also other household facilities.


Question 407: Ownership status of residence
The ownership status is categorized into five types, which are: self-owned, rent and purchase, contract, rented, official residence and others.

Self-owned if during the enumeration the residence is actually owned by the head of the household or he/she is still paying installments to the bank.

Installments/rent and purchase if during the enumeration the residence is not yet owned by one of the household members, or if during the enumeration the household still pays installments to the previous owner of the building. The status of "Rent and purchase" is [applicable] if the residence was previously being rented, and after a certain period could be owned by one of the household members.

Contract if during the enumeration the residence was rented by one of the household members during a certain period based on a contract agreement between the owner and the tenant for a period of one or two years. The payment is usually done up-front or paid in installments. At the end of the contract the tenant must leave the house or, if agreed between both parties, the contract could be extended.

Rent/lease if the household or one of the household members pays the rent regularly and continuously without a contract valid for a certain time period.

Official residence if a certain state/private institute provides the house that covers the rent or rent purchase.

Other is if the house cannot be categorized into one of the categories above, for example, a house being owned together.

Note: ownership status of a residence should be observed from the household members who live in the house.

Example: Andi's household lives in the house for free, which is rented by Bambang's household from Cici's household -- the ownership status of Andi's residence is categorized as "Other".

Circle one of the appropriate ownership statuses. If the answer is categorized as "Other", write down the status between brackets. Continue the interview on P409 if the respondent's answer is not coded 1 or 2.
