Is Mass housing gaining importance??

Mass housing is gaining a lot of popularity in today's market. Just to deal with the rising population in India and to let everybody get one-one room are becoming popular....

Yes, mass housing is gaining importance.....Moreover, it has become a need of the hour.....

Indian Population is increasing like anything and so is the need of Dwelling Units........

As far as the Indian property Investers are concerned, For them, Low Cost Housing is making a perfect sense in terms of volume that the market is offering.

"Providing economical housing is beneficial for buyers (in terms of providing more options to choose from) and to developers since the latter can construct more. The demand in terms of units is phenomenal and developers getting into this segment can build for years to come. They have the assurance of sure-shot absorption as well. One must understand that developers are not shifting from high-end to low cost housing. They are only branching out. Most of the big names getting into middle-segment housing continue to build high-end projects," says Mr.Puri.....Chairman and Country Head of JLLM.

95 % indian like to drive car if they can afford it. 100 % indians like to stay in individual apartments but can they afford? Mass housing is taking care of pocket as well as your need.

"Venkatesh" I am not agreed with your view for comman man. I also dont like to stay in crowded place but this is for the person who is having CTC of 2 lacs per anum in mumbai cant afford to live in rented house of 1 BHK.

This concept is a hit in market.

But This is also going to face a lots of trouble in near future. Most common problem will be ground water problem.

I am wainting to see the result after after completion of these Mass housing in two three places. It is not going to be as simple as it looks.

Housing developments in India are taking place only in selected pockets. These have yet to take the characteristic of mass housing. Indian property investors are targeting lower- to mid-end houseowners in the booming economy now that sales of plush apartments have slowed.

About 7.6 million houses have been constructed under the Indira Awaas Yojana scheme since its inception in 1985-86

The Karnataka Housing Board experience in mud housing was a failure because they went too fast.

For the concept of mass housing to succeed, there has to be optimum use of technology, combined with SOPs and private-public participation. Once  groups and institutions adopt technology transfer, they will be acceptable to the middle and lower income groups. And then mass housing will become an acceptable proposition.

Yes

 I also support this because in the long run everybody will be benificial with this,

Increasing value of land and increasing population will leads to this best option.
