INTRODUCTION
House is one of the basic needs of human beings. All of us live in a house. There are many types of houses. Your relatives may be living in a small hut in the village. Your friend, Radha may be having a flat and another friend Sita may be staying in a bunglow in a city.
You can get the house constructed yourself or you can purchase a readymade house and if you cannot afford this you may stay in a rented house.
