The process of urban spaces being commodified, driven by the forces of globalization and neoliberal policies, exacerbates dis-parities among city dwellers, leading to heightened urban poverty, the displacement of marginalized groups, and the emergence of social issues like segregation and polarization within urban communities. To prevent urban poverty, which is the source of numerous problems such as low income, inability to adapt to the city, squatting, environmental problems, illegal activities, and violence, and to guarantee spatial and social sustainability in cities, various policies are implemented. The "tenure mix" method is one of the housing approaches intended to address these issues and create sustainable settlements. Despite its significance in de-fining housing policies in other countries, mixed tenure has not been incorporated into policy and practice in Turkey, nor has it received substantial attention in academic discourse. One of the primary factors contributing to this phenomenon is the limited range of tenure variety in Turkey, coupled with the absence of a legislative framework supporting such diversity. The objective of this study is to examine the mixed tenure strategy through a comprehensive analysis of scientific research undertaken globally. The study aims to assess the potential benefits of this approach in addressing housing issues and to critically evaluate its feasibility within the context of Turkey. The concept of "mixed tenure" emerged in the late 1990s and has since been discussed in the literature. However, there is a scarcity of research that comprehensively examine this topic from many perspectives. In light of the intensification of studies in recent years and the subject's growing relevance, it is necessary to execute a comprehensive analysis of the topic. The present study employed a meta-analysis approach to assess publications pertaining to the subject matterthat were published in scientific databases during the years 2000 to 2022. The data acquired from this study is believed to have the potential to enhance the analysis of various forms of tenure in housing production and aid in the formulation of models that can provide effective solutions to address the housing issue.
