Abstract

The rise of smart city concept is fundamental because it is more integrated in the fast-growing urbanisation nowadays and the primary objective is to solve the social problems that are associated with the urban cities. Though the outcomes of these programs may vary based on the level of participation of the real estate valuers community and its acceptance of them. In the light of it, the aim for this study would be to show the problems and scenarios personally proven as obstacles for real estate valuers while the acceptance of smart city concept is in Malaysia. This will lead to the community being able to familiarize themselves with the smart city technologies and the process of valuation. This study has been carried out throughout the entire process of development of smart city ecosystem. The purpose of this study is to be able to distinguish the issues and scenarios among real estate valuers community related to smart city concepts. Thus, this study could help us understand on how to stimulate more involvement and participation of real estate valuers community in the urban areas that are under the category of smart city. It can be used in educating political leaders on inclusive policies, involving citizens in designing and operating technologies that people want and let the communities play a role in planning how they will design the city. Conclusively, thi study intended to lay the foundation for the sustainability and equality of smart cities, which are vital aspects of national development.
