Every new township or housing project details should be available on a govt website wherein the buyer can see the status of all the permissions obtained by developer along with the rates offered for sale strictly on carpet area basis. Inventory should be taxed at the hands of developer like in TN, which will not only curb black money but also bring down rates substantially to affordable levels. The tax returns of the developer and project details including funds sources should be made public.

To build housing for all, the biggest hurdle will be land availability. In every city there is lot of land occupied by Armed forces. Government can move the Army establishments to outskirts and use this land for housing purpose.

17. Property tax & rent to be made related & should be have reference to auction price. 18. Actually economy needs money in circulation. Here financial resources are getting stuck. Stuck housing stock means dead money in cement / sand without return other than capital appreciation. 19. This stuck stock should be brought to market as early as possible. This stuck stock spreads slumps around. This slumps have its own problems of society as whole. 20. Once stock starts moving its worth increases.
