Abstract
A home is one of the basic human needs, thus a new concept known as Grow
Home has risen. This concept was established to encourage more families to buy their
own houses. The Grow Home concept is based on the notion of affordable housing. This
paper aims to explore a proposal for affordable housing measurement with six assessment
components. In other words, this work intends to study factors that can affect affordable
housing assessment. In this paper, we investigated the 20 criteria for affordable housing
assessment given by Mulliner and Maliene in their study. Then, we rearranged these
criteria into five components, and added the Grow Home component. Each component
has different criteria. Finally, six affordable housing measurement components are
identified, namely, income ratios, loans and accommodations, facilities and services,
safety and comfort, quality management, and Grow Home. These components are also
considered as main factors that directly affect affordable housing. This study aspires to
contribute to existing literature by proposing six assessment components as a
measurement of affordable housing.
