Abstract

The location of projects in the My House My Life Program (PMCMV) is of great importance because it is not only a business relationship between buyers and developers, but also a contribution to the social transformation. The use of modern tools that help the launching plan of Real Estate companies, financiers, and buyers is a constant challenge to the sector, which requires accurate decisions. This article proposes a new tool for the planning of PMCMV residential real estate projects, using Operations Research techniques such as the p-median to locate candidate areas to receive ventures as close as possible to the existing potential demands. In order to illustrate the proposed method, a detailed case study was carried out in the Municipality of Rio de Janeiro. The results obtained in the case study demonstrate, in some cases, large variations between the positions of higher demand and the launches of developments in the PMCMV format promoted by the market.
