Homeownership Built to Last (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

A Brookings Institution Press and Harvard University Joint Center for Housing Studies publication
The ups and downs in housing markets over the past two decades are without
precedent, and the costs--financial, psychological, and social--have been
enormous. Yet Americans overwhelmingly still aspire to homeownership,
and many still view access to homeownership as an important ingredient for building
wealth among historically disadvantaged groups.

This timely volume reexamines the goals, risks, and rewards of homeownership
in the wake of the housing bubble and subprime lending crisis. Housing, real estate,
and finance experts explore the role of government in supporting homeownership,
deliberate how homeownership can be made more sustainable, and discuss how
best to balance affordability, access, and risk, particularly for minorities and low income
families.
