there is a change in the Real State Industry due to the shift of
focus Towards the Affordable Housing in the last few years.

fulfills a basic human need for shelter, but it also contributes to
the well being of both parents and children. Children in stable

disruption in their education due to unwanted moves. Decent,
affordable housing reduces stress, toxins, and infectious disease,
which leads to improvement in both physical and mental health.
