520 |a Worldwide, housing micro finance (HMF) is fast gaining acceptance as an effective tool for solving the ever growing housing problem. In India too, the ‘real housing problem’ or the housing problem of the poorcould be addressed using the tremendous potential of HMF. As high as 99.84 percent of the total housing shortage in India relates to the poor viz. those in the Economically Weaker Section (EWS) and Low Income Group (LIG) segments. In spite of the vast potential of HMF in solving the ‘real housing problem’, it is yet to pick up momentum in India. In this context, this paper looks into the aspects like quality, transaction costs, and default rate of HMF loans, based on the feedback from the bankers of ‘Bhavanashree’ (BS)– theHMF initiative of the poverty alleviation programmeof the Government of Keralacalled ‘Kudumbashree’ (KS). Accordingly, the paper makes suggestions for more meaningful HMF administration.
