This dissertation aims to analyze the processes of duality in the constitution of a company town Ipatinga, in the Steel Valley, in Minas Gerais, and the relationship between the strategic stock of real property, called speculative retention properties, with the consequent barriers to access to land urban-dwelling identified in open-city built around and as a result of the initial nucleus. City caused by the huge steelworks Usiminas, lodging in its bosom the aforementioned separation between city-closed and city-open. Our analysis turned to the city-open, stage of operation of a property market that clings to the very construction of the plant, promoting the rapid transformation of rural land into urban land, building on a land structure concentrated in the growing demand for land urbanized and disclosure of city land as an investment for profit.

The chosen methodology exercised the complementarity between qualitative and quantitative approaches, based on secondary data from official sources and documents and combining the production of information from interviews with residents and observers of privileged urban history of Ipatinga. The analysis aimed to show how the process of retention and real estate appreciation has developed over the years in Ipatinga, affecting not only vacant lands as real estate built, expanding urban boundaries of the city to neighboring counties where a new round of speculation develops, trying to describe the control of the property market on the city's growth in mismatch with the social function of urban property that must be respected in our legal system. Unveiled is therefore sociospatial inequality, characteristic of cities where the Capital - and the property market - controlling the access to the city to its users and where public policies are not effective in gaining citizenship for all
