| Summary: | Strata ownership presents a promising housing option characterised by shared amenities within a single building or complex, offering diverse advantages to its residents. Despite its potential, the adoption of this housing concept in Brunei remains relatively novel, significantly influencing the acceptance of strata living. This paper aims to assess the extent of Bruneians' embrace of strata living and identify factors influencing their acceptance of Strata Title Living (STL) in Brunei. Seven factors related to strata living acceptability - including cost savings, provision of facilities, house design, legal framework, housing environment, political context, and government support - were examined to determine their impact on Bruneians' acceptability. Data were collected from 241 Brunei residents via surveys, and both descriptive and inferential analyses were conducted to assess Bruneians' acceptance factors regarding strata title living. Results reveal a notably low level of acceptance among Bruneians toward STL and underscore the most influential factor shaping Bruneians' acceptability of STL within Brunei Darussalam. © 2024 Malaysian Institute Of Planners.
