This sector plays an important role in the country’s economy and is discussed at various times. Rapid urbanization, the growth of the middle class, and remittances from expatriates are driving demand for the housing sector, which contributes significantly to GDP and creates employment. However, rising prices of construction materials, economic pressures, and RAJUK’s new DAP policy have challenged the sector.
