Book Synopsis Fundamental Drivers of House Prices in Advanced Economies by : Ms.Nan Geng
Download or read book Fundamental Drivers of House Prices in Advanced Economies written by Ms.Nan Geng and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2018-07-13 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: House prices in many advanced economies have risen substantially in recent decades. But experience indicates that housing prices can diverge from their long-run equilibrium or sustainable levels, potentially followed by adjustments that impact macroeconomic and financial stability. Therefore there is a need to monitor house prices and assess whether they are sustainable. This paper focuses on fundamentals expected to drive long run trends in house prices, including institutional and structural factors. The scale of potential valuation gaps is gauged on the basis of a cross-country panel analysis of house prices in 20 OECD countries.
Book Synopsis Subprime Mortgages by : Edward M. Gramlich
Download or read book Subprime Mortgages written by Edward M. Gramlich and published by The Urban Insitute. This book was released on 2007 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past decade, a new mortgage market offering loans at low interest rates and for little or no money down has given low-income people an opportunity to pursue the American dream of homeownership. The resulting wave in home buying promised to stabilize neighborhoods and families, boost the economy, and reduce crime. In many ways, the optimists were correct, but now, less than fifteen years later, the subprime mortgage market is collapsing, threatening to take the rest of the housing sector along with it.Subprime Mortgages: America's Latest Boom and Bust analyzes how the subprime market emerged, why it is in crisis, and how we can reform public policy to avert disaster. An attendant examination of the rental market also offers recommendations for shoring up what may be the best housing option for some families.
Book Synopsis Why Can't You Afford a Home? by : Josh Ryan-Collins
Download or read book Why Can't You Afford a Home? written by Josh Ryan-Collins and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2018-11-26 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the Western world, a whole generation is being priced out of the housing market. For millions of people, particularly millennials, the basic goal of acquiring decent, affordable accommodation is a distant dream. Leading economist Josh Ryan-Collins argues that to understand this crisis, we must examine a crucial paradox at the heart of modern capitalism. The interaction of private home ownership and a lightly regulated commercial banking system leads to a feedback cycle. Unlimited credit and money flows into an inherently finite supply of property, which causes rising house prices, declining home ownership, rising inequality and debt, stagnant growth and financial instability. Radical reforms are needed to break the cycle. This engaging and topical book will be essential reading for anyone who wants to understand why they can’t find an affordable home, and what we can do about it.

Download or read book Hot Property written by Rob Nijskens and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-06-14 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book discusses booming housing markets in cities around the globe, and the resulting challenges for policymakers and central banks. Cities are booming everywhere, leading to a growing demand for urban housing. In many cities this demand is out-pacing supply, which causes house prices to soar and increases the pressure on rental markets. These developments are posing major challenges for policymakers, central banks and other authorities responsible for ensuring financial stability, and economic well-being in general.This volume collects views from high-level policymakers and researchers, providing essential insights into these challenges, their impact on society, the economy and financial stability, and possible policy responses. The respective chapters address issues such as the popularity of cities, the question of a credit-fueled housing bubble, the role of housing supply frictions and potential policy solutions. Given its scope, the book offers a revealing read and valuable guide for everyone involved in practical policymaking for housing markets, mortgage credit and financial stability.
Book Synopsis Measuring and Explaining House Price Developments by : Paul de Vries
Download or read book Measuring and Explaining House Price Developments written by Paul de Vries and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study discusses ways of measuring and explaining the development of house prices. The goal of the research underpinning this dissertation was to develop a methodological framework for studying these developments. This framework relates, first, to correcting for changes in the composition of dwellings and, second, to the fundamentals of the price development. Using the weighted repeat sales method and sale price appraisal ratio (SPAR) method, house price indexes were developed for the Netherlands. Both the Dutch land registry office and Statistics Netherlands publish the SPAR based house price index monthly. To explain and predict changes in prices, a house price model is presented. As suggested in literature on western housing markets, the Dutch house price developments can be explained by demand-oriented short-run term variables and a long-run term variable.
Book Synopsis Home Ownership in Crisis? by : Ray Forrest
Download or read book Home Ownership in Crisis? written by Ray Forrest and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-12-20 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1999, this book brings together the findings from research projects funded by the Joseph Rowntree Foundation and the Department of the Environment, Transport and the Regions. The programme of research examined the problems faced by home owners with the collapse of the property market in the late 1980s. The book focuses on households with negative equity and uses analyzes of secondary data sets, social surveys and in-depth interviews to explore the implications of the fall in property values for both households and the wider economy. In particular it examines the kinds of coping strategies adopted by home owners in relation to debt and mobility. Home Ownership in Crisis? thus gets beyond aggregate estimates and offers the reader a detailed understanding of what negative equity actually means for the individuals concerned. Moreover, by exposing a range of circumstances in which negative equity arises, the book also informs debates about the kinds of policy initiatives which may be appropriate in dealing with a more volatile economic environment in Britain and elsewhere.
Book Synopsis Winners And Losers by : Chris Hamnett
Download or read book Winners And Losers written by Chris Hamnett and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2005-07-15 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1998. The growth of home ownership since the end of the Second World War marks one of the most fundamental social changes to have taken place in Britain. From being a nation of renters at the end of war, Britain has been converted into a nation of home-owners. In 1945 approximately 25% of households in Britain owned their own homes. Today the proportion is just over two-thirds. In the process, the proportion of households renting from private landlords has fallen from 65% to about 8%. As a result, the home ownership market in Britain plays a far more important role today than hitherto: both in housing the population and as a potential source of capital gains and losses. In addition, the home ownership market plays a significant role in the overall health of the economy. This is not to deny the importance of social and private rented housing or the major problems of homelessness. It is simply to assert that the home ownership market now affects two out of three households in Britain, and many more who wish to gain access to it. This book is about the dramatic booms and busts of the home ownership market in Britain during the last twenty years: and their causes and consequences both for the individuals involved and for the economy as a whole. It argues that the home ownership market in Britain, particularly in southern Britain, where the booms and slumps have been experienced most sharply, has been akin to a casino. There have been big winners, but there have also been big losers. The last thirty years have been a roller coaster ride for owners: exhilarating, but potentially highly dangerous, not least for those who fell off, or were thrown off, in the slump of the early 1990s.

Book Synopsis Housing and the Financial Crisis by : Edward L. Glaeser
Download or read book Housing and the Financial Crisis written by Edward L. Glaeser and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2013-08-19 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conventional wisdom held that housing prices couldn’t fall. But the spectacular boom and bust of the housing market during the first decade of the twenty-first century and millions of foreclosed homeowners have made it clear that housing is no different from any other asset in its ability to climb and crash. Housing and the Financial Crisis looks at what happened to prices and construction both during and after the housing boom in different parts of the American housing market, accounting for why certain areas experienced less volatility than others. It then examines the causes of the boom and bust, including the availability of credit, the perceived risk reduction due to the securitization of mortgages, and the increase in lending from foreign sources. Finally, it examines a range of policies that might address some of the sources of recent instability.
Book Synopsis Housing Markets in the United States and Japan by : Yukio Noguchi
Download or read book Housing Markets in the United States and Japan written by Yukio Noguchi and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2007-12-01 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although Japan and the United States are the world's leading economies, there are significant differences in the ways their wealth is translated into living standards. A careful comparison of housing markets illustrates not only how living standards in the two countries differ, but also reveals much about saving patterns and how they affect wealth accumulation. In this volume, ten essays discuss the evolution of housing prices, housing markets and personal savings, housing finance, commuting, and the impact of public policy on housing markets. The studies reveal surprising differences in housing investment in the two countries. For example, because down payments in Japan are much higher than in the United States, Japanese tend to delay home purchases relative to their American counterparts. In the United States, the advent of home equity credit may have reduced private saving overall. This book is the first comparison of housing markets in Japan and the United States, and its findings illuminate the effects of housing markets on productivity growth, business investment, and trade.
