What does an affordable house mean?

We often hear that real estate has a new concept for middle class family, which is so called “Affordable house”. Almost everyone showed a positive attitude for such concept because when it comes about a middle class family, everyone thinks about the cost. But is this concept feasible? Almost all developers are offering 1BHK flat in far-flung are with a name “Affordable house”. According to Mr. Deepak Parekh, chairman of HDFC, “Affordable housing is not about box-sized, budget homes in far-flung places where there is no connectivity to work places and little surrounding infrastructure”.

Affordable house should be such a housing solution which has economic sense in terms of proximity of work place. This concept also requires public and private sector collaboration.
