There is a serious problem of the right to access to adequate housing in South Africa particularly by the indigents and the vulnerable in the society. This paper examined the efficacy and efficiency of the transformative interventions that have been progressively introduced to realize the right to access to adequate housing in South Africa. Methodologically, secondary data such as the Constitution, legislation, case law and relevant scholarly literature were broadly consulted, utilized and applied to explore these interventions in addressing the inherent problem of lack of access to adequate housing constitutionally mandated in South Africa. This approach is in line with the qualitative research method. The study found that those who have been saddled with the responsibility to provide and deliver adequate housing to the needy have dismally failed and most of them escaped accountability hence culture of impunity thrived broadly.
