The need for achieving sustainability in social housing has been widely acknowledged in the literature and society in general. Housing problems occur both in rich and poor communities across the planet. The target of this research is to review housing problems which cause unwholesome environmental conditions. The tactic used could also be a review of educational articles, textbooks, internet materials, news articles and publicly available materials on housing problems. Onward taking up any work for its execution, the owner or builder should have a thorough knowledge about the volume of work that can be completed within the limits of his funds or the probable cost that may be required to complete the proposed work. It is hereby necessary to modulate the probable cost or estimate for the proposed work from its plan and specification. Otherwise, it may happen that the work has to be stopped in the middle of construction due to shortage of funds or materials. At present there is plenty of cost-effective technology which can be used for construction of affordable houses at large scales. But due to lack of their technical knowledge, they are still not in use. In future with the increase of their technical aspect, these technologies can be used for mass construction of affordable housing projects in India for the poor and needy.
