Book Synopsis The Effects of Price Uncertainty on Home Purchase Decisions Over the Life-Cycle by : Lu Han
Download or read book The Effects of Price Uncertainty on Home Purchase Decisions Over the Life-Cycle written by Lu Han and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper presents a life-cycle model of housing demand for repeated home purchase market with uncertain house prices and lumpy transaction costs. By extending the (S,s) methodology to a non-stationary discrete time framework with multivariate stochastic price processes, I derive optimal home purchase decision rules and the housing risk premium. This allows me to characterize a self-hedging mechanism in an incomplete market: households use earlier accumulated housing wealth to hedge against the future housing cost risk. As a result, the direction of the effects of price uncertainty on housing demand depends critically on households' future housing consumption plans. When price uncertainty increases, households consume (and thereby invest in) less housing if they plan to realize the housing wealth gain. However, they will instead take bigger housing positions if they plan to move to a bigger home in a correlated housing market in the future.

This book was released on 2014-06-27 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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 lowincome families.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines how price risk affects housing demand. It identifies two relevant channels: a financial risk effect that reduces demand, and a hedging effect that increases demand since current homes may hedge future housing costs. The latter dominates when hedging incentives are strong, namely when the likelihood of moving up the housing ladder is high and the tendency to move across markets is low. For households with weak hedging incentives, the paper finds negative effects of price risk on the timing and size of home purchases, but positive effects for households with strong hedging incentives.

Book Synopsis Housing Tenure, Uncertainty, and Taxation by : Harvey S. Rosen
Download or read book Housing Tenure, Uncertainty, and Taxation written by Harvey S. Rosen and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern empirical work on the choice between renting and owning focuses on the concept of the "user cost" of housing, which integrates into a single measure the various components of housing costs. The standard approach implicitly assumes that households know the user cost of housing with certainty. However, the ex post user cost measure exhibits substantial variability over time, and it is highly unlikely that individuals believe themselves able to forecast these fluctuations with certainty. In this paper, we construct and estimate a model of the tenure choice that explicitly allows for the effects of uncertainty. The results suggest that previous work which ignored uncertainty may have overstated the effects of the income tax system upon the tenure choice.
Book Synopsis Price Expectations and the U.S. Housing Boom by : Pascal Towbin
Download or read book Price Expectations and the U.S. Housing Boom written by Pascal Towbin and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2015-07-30 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1996 and 2006 the U.S. has experienced an unprecedented boom in house prices. As it has proven to be difficult to explain the large price increase by observable fundamentals, many observers have emphasized the role of speculation, i.e. expectations about future price developments. The argument is, however, often indirect: speculation is treated as a deviation from a benchmark. The present paper aims to identify house price expectation shocks directly. To that purpose, we estimate a VAR model for the U.S. and use sign restrictions to identify house price expectation, housing supply, housing demand, and mortgage rate shocks. House price expectation shocks are the most important driver of the boom and account for about 30 percent of the real house price increase. We also construct a model-based measure of exogenous changes in price expectations and show that this measure leads a survey-based measure of changes in house price expectations. Our main identification scheme leaves open whether expectation shifts are realistic or unrealistic. In extensions, we provide evidence that price expectation shifts during the boom were primarily unrealistic and were only marginally affected by realistic expectations about future fundamentals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Home listing prices continue to be high. Mortgage interest rates are high; the last time they were this high was in the early 2000s. But the cost of borrowing is likely to go up over the next year, which will make the decision much harder for people who may need to buy in that time. The majority of us will continue investing in the markets and accumulating money for a down payment until the housing market stabilizes. Q.ai eliminates uncertainty from investment. Here’s How Strange the Housing Market Is Getting Right Now. In other words, rising mortgage rates are bad news for the housing market, and the US just saw one of the sharpest hikes ever. Home buyers are now dealing with severe price shock as affordability indicators are deteriorating at their highest rate ever. In fact, a number of market milestones have been reached recently, with mortgage spreads and benchmark interest rates reaching levels that haven’t been seen in decades while the number of new sales is declining at a rate that is faster than even during the period following the global

Download or read book Chasing the American Dream written by William M. Rohe and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-07-05 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Providing decent, safe, and affordable housing to low- and moderate-income families has been an important public policy goal for more than a century. In recent years there has been a clear shift of emphasis among policymakers from a focus on providing affordable rental units to providing affordable homeownership opportunities. Due in part to programs introduced by the Clinton and Bush administrations, the nation's homeownership rate is currently at an all-time high. Does a house become a home only when it comes with a deed attached? Is participation in the real-estate market a precondition to engaged citizenship or wealth creation? The real estate industry's marketing efforts and government policy initiatives might lead one to believe so. The shift in emphasis from rental subsidies to affordable homeownership opportunities has been justified in many ways. Claims for the benefits of homeownership have been largely accepted without close scrutiny. But is homeownership always beneficial for low-income Americans, or are its benefits undermined by the difficulties caused by unfavorable mortgage terms and by the poor condition or location of the homes bought? Chasing the American Dream provides a critical assessment of affordable homeownership policies and goals. Its contributors represent a variety of disciplinary perspectives and offer a thorough understanding of the economic, social, political, architectural, and cultural effects of homeownership programs, as well as their history. The editors draw together the assessments included in this book to prescribe a plan of action that lays out what must be done to make homeownership policy both effective and equitable.

Book Synopsis Red Tape and Housing Costs by : Michael Luger
Download or read book Red Tape and Housing Costs written by Michael Luger and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-04-24 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Homeownership - a core American Dream - remains elusive to millions of families priced out of the unstable housing market. This book explores the delicate balance between regulations designed to promote the production of sound, affordable housing in safe community environments and the red tape in which housing developers become entangled.Based on case studies of communities in New Jersey and North Carolina, and building on extensive research on the housing development regulatory process, the authors examine the incidence of regulation and quantify the actual itemized costs of excessive regulation. How are the costs of excessive regulation distributed between developers and home buyers? How can state and local jurisdictions reform deeply entrenched regulatory systems to ease the delivery of affordable housing from developer to purchaser?Red Tape and Housing Costs examines the incidence of regulation. The distribution of these costs is critical to housing affordability. At the same time, developers shift to building housing for consumers to whom they can pass on the increasing costs of regulation. Michael I. Luger and Kenneth Temkin provide policymakers and housing advocates with hard facts and reasoned explanations about the link between excessive regulations and spiraling housing costs. The authors argue that their analysis will allow policymakers to launch efforts to create responsible housing development regulatory systems.
Book Synopsis Understanding Recent Trends in House Prices and Home Ownership by : Robert J. Shiller
Download or read book Understanding Recent Trends in House Prices and Home Ownership written by Robert J. Shiller and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper looks at a broad array of evidence concerning the recent boom in home prices, and considers what this means for future home prices and the economy. It does not appear possible to explain the boom in terms of fundamentals such as rents or construction costs. A psychological theory, that represents the boom as taking place because of a feedback mechanism or social epidemic that encourages a view of housing as an important investment opportunity, fits the evidence better.
Book Synopsis Housing Demand and Community Choice by : Carol Rapaport
Download or read book Housing Demand and Community Choice written by Carol Rapaport and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Housing demand reflects the household's simultaneous choice of neighborhood, whether to own or rent the dwelling, and the quantity of housing services demanded. Existing literature emphasizes the final two factors, but overlooks the choice of community. This paper develops an econometric model that incorporates all three components, and then estimates this model using a sample of households in Tampa, Florida. Incorporating community choice increases the price elasticity of demand and reduces the differential between white and comparable nonwhite households. The results are robust to the inclusion of permanent income and taxes"--Abstract.
