Will affordable housing boost property sales?

BrixResearch Moderator says: Mahindra Lifespaces has just announced that its new property project will have affordable houses. This move is expected to bring in more buyers from the middle-income segment.

Affordable housing is making waves in the realty sector due to high cost of property, high home loan rates, high inflation and the huge gap between demand and supply. Other developers like Matheran Realty, Indu Projects, Shriram Properties, Jain Heights and Structures, Ansal Properties and Shapoorji Pallonji have already announced projects in this category. But will this move boost property sales?

Affordable homes: Can they be a reality?

Magicbricks.com moderator says: At a recent seminar on affordable homes, I heard many people speak on the subject. Many speakers said that the government needs to draft policies for affordable homes. Other speakers mentioned that private developers need to take a lead there?

How do we begin on this concept? Who should take a lead here? Govt or private developers or both of them (Public-Private-Participation model). Any idea, any suggestions? Please paste your answers in the ‘comments’ section. Else, mail them to editor@magicbricks.com.
