The main criteria effecting housing costs is simply the size of the dwelling. Today average houses are 250+ m2 mansions.
This is more than twice the size of the housing occupied by the 'Baby Boomers' of the 1960's and 1970's., and obviously unaffordable by many.
Thus affordability can be provided by reducing the area of the homes.
Our approach in providing affordable housing is to only use common building construction methods used by local volume builders -
Builders are not stupid, they use the most economical methods. |

The current "affordable housing" subsidy system is unsustainable. |

Currently taxpayer funding is used to buy or build properties which are then rented at much less than their value, often below the amount required for maintenance etc. The model is totally unsustainable.
Providing low income people with small homes they can afford to pay a loan on gets them on the property ladder at no cost to the taxpayer. |

An anomally exists in the benefit system that pays "Rent Assistance" but not "Loan Assistance". i.e. low income home owners are penalised by the benefit system as are married couples. |
