The governmental aids were not related with the value of the damaged property and same aids are provided to the victims which may cause charity hazard for the owners of low value real estates. On the other hand, owners of the high value real estates tried all legal means to have their buildings repaired which may led to retrofit of unsuitable buildings. The state offers grants and low-interest support for the reconstruction of demolished buildings by property owners on the same site. The problems of these situations are that most of the demolished buildings are demolished because they were built on unsuitable ground, and people with no construction experience will be managing contracts with experienced contractors. During the constructions, the contractors will probably ask for price increase and construct the buildings with low quality material and poor workmanship as they do not have to sell them since the customers have to accept the constructed facility. © 2025 by the authors.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessCharity hazardGovernment aidNatural disasterConference Object7637782-s2.0-105022854122Q4
