In order to understand and formulate housing policy and programs,
it is necessary to have a working knowledge of the internal
economic operation of housing from the points of view of both the
investor and the owner. James W. Hughes argues that investors' and
owners' behavior and activity tend to be governed by market forces
and other realities. In that regard, he begins this work by
analyzing market rates of return in real estate and housing
undertakings, and the variety of analytical techniques which
underlie their determination.Methods of Housing Analysis is
designed to provide urban planners with an introduction to the
basic, quantitative techniques associated with the analysis of
housing. A myriad of specific analytical methods has evolved in
each of the professions concerned with this subject area. Planners,
investors, developers, engineers, appraisers, social scientists,
and governmental officials all tend to exhibit unique perspectives
when examining housing and have developed their analytical
frameworks accordingly.The work is comprised of an extensive
discussion by the author, detailed case studies and examples, and a
number of essays by leading experts that detail specific analytical
procedures and demonstrate their use. The book is divided into four
major sections: analysis of the internal operation of housing;
basic cost-revenue analysis; expanded cost-revenue/benefit
analysis; and government regulation of housing. The thorough nature
of Hughes' discussion and of the related readings makes this volume
an ideal textbook and reference source.
