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.
