There is a lot of discussion on this in the archives. One question is the definition you are using for "affordable". This varies from location to location and from one person to the next. Sometimes it means "low cost" and sometimes it means "average market rate in the area." And sometimes "80% or less of the average market rate in the area." There are many other formulas as well. Speaking in price ranges will produce a clearer discussion. Also clear goals help. Are you trying to have prices as low as possible so people can move in and upgrade finishes or even completer a bathroom later? Or are you trying to reduce over all costs?
