What is the current state of housing in the country?
Over the years, we have seen a constant deficit figure of 150,000 houses annually against a production of 50,000 units. I tend to dispute the second figure. I think the annual output is much higher than this. If you look around, you will see a lot of new housing projects that are adding more stock to the market. We are working on a new methodology that will give proper statistics that will guide both the government and developers.
