This book was released on 2018-07-11 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chronic homelessness is a highly complex social problem of national importance. The problem has elicited a variety of societal and public policy responses over the years, concomitant with fluctuations in the economy and changes in the demographics of and attitudes toward poor and disenfranchised citizens. In recent decades, federal agencies, nonprofit organizations, and the philanthropic community have worked hard to develop and implement programs to solve the challenges of homelessness, and progress has been made. However, much more remains to be done. Importantly, the results of various efforts, and especially the efforts to reduce homelessness among veterans in recent years, have shown that the problem of homelessness can be successfully addressed. Although a number of programs have been developed to meet the needs of persons experiencing homelessness, this report focuses on one particular type of intervention: permanent supportive housing (PSH). Permanent Supportive Housing focuses on the impact of PSH on health care outcomes and its cost-effectiveness. The report also addresses policy and program barriers that affect the ability to bring the PSH and other housing models to scale to address housing and health care needs.

Book Affordable Housing Development

Download or read book Affordable Housing Development written by Jaime P. Luque and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-04-01 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explains the nuts and bolts of affordable housing development. Divided into two complementary sections, the book first provides an overview of the effectiveness of existing federal and state housing programs in the United States, such as the LIHTC and TIF programs. In turn, the book’s second section presents an extensive discussion of and insights into the financial feasibility of an affordable real estate development project. Researchers, policymakers and organizations in the public, private and nonprofit sectors will find this book a valuable resource in addressing the concrete needs of affordable housing development. “Luque, Ikromov, and Noseworthy’s new book on Affordable Housing Development is a “must read” for all those seeking to address the growing and vexing problem of affordable housing supply. The authors provide important insights and practical demonstration of important financial tools often necessary to the financial feasibility of such projects, including tax-increment financing and the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit. Further, the authors provide important backdrop to the affordability crisis and homelessness. I highly recommend this book to all who seek both to articulate and enhance housing access.” By Stuart Gabriel, Arden Realty Chair, Professor of Finance and Director, Richard S. Ziman Center for Real Estate at UCLA "Over several years Jaime Luque, Nuriddin Ikromov and William Noseworthy applied their analytical bent, and no small measure of empathy, to homelessness as actually experienced in Madison, Wisconsin – and they inspired multiple classes of urban economics students to join them. “Homelessness” is a complex web of issues affecting a spectrum of populations, from individuals struggling with addiction or emotional disorders, to families who’ve been dealt a bad hand in an often-unforgiving economy. Read this book to follow Jaime, Nuriddin, and William as they evaluate a panoply of housing and social programs, complementing the usual top-down design perspective with practical analysis of the feasibility of actual developments and their effectiveness. Analytical but written for a broad audience, this book will be of interest to anyone running a low-income housing program, private and public developers, students, and any instructor designing a learning-by-doing course that blends rigor with real-world application to a local problem."

Book Why Can t You Afford a Home

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.

Book The Story Behind the Mortgage and Housing Meltdown

Download or read book The Story Behind the Mortgage and Housing Meltdown written by Kenneth Clark and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2010-08-05 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born in Washington, DC, Ken Clark grew up the oldest of 6 children to Richard and Mary Clark. His parents had several entrepreneurial ventures, including real estate and restaurants, where Ken and his siblings worked as children. After graduating, Ken set off to California to open and run a Nutrition shop. In 1979, he came back to the East Coast to join his father in his first mortgage company venture. After buying out his father and adding a Virginia state chartered bank to his lending portfolio, he grew Sentry Mortgage Bankers while maintaining a small broker shop called First Guaranty Mortgage. After selling Sentry, the time was return to turn First Guaranty into a national lender and in 1995 set up its headquarters in Tysons Corner, VA. Now with licenses in 44 states and relationships with Fannie Mae, Ginnie Mae, HUD and the Veterans Administration, Ken is able to help folks around the country stay in their homes and improve their financial situations. He takes great price in accomplishing this goal and looks forward to the time when the American Dream of home ownership is a reality again for every person in this country. During this period of uncertainty with mortgages and housing, Ken along with a large group of employees that work with him, spend numerous hours working daily to create, change and come up with ideas that help people that are caught in a mortgage and housing debacle that certainly he after 30 years in the business and most people living today have never seen. He has vowed that regardless of what the Government does for banks and the enormous advantage they have with our money as deposits, he will survive, move forward and keep FHA, a company that was created to help the underserved and young military families after World War I, and anybody that needed somebody to show compassion and the willingness to see the person as a whole. Kens underwriting style which has proven to certainly be with FHA one of the best in the country. He does not look at the persons past credit only but rather that along with his future belief in their ability to make a payment, the one lender that wants and believes that people are basically good and that delinquencies are basically extenuating circumstances.

Book The Great American Housing Bubble

Download or read book The Great American Housing Bubble written by Adam J. Levitin and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2020-06-09 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive account of the housing bubble that caused the Great Recession—and earned Wall Street fantastic profits. The American housing bubble of the 2000s caused the worst global financial crisis since the Great Depression. In this definitive account, Adam Levitin and Susan Wachter pinpoint its source: the shift in mortgage financing from securitization by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to “private-label securitization” by Wall Street banks. This change set off a race to the bottom in mortgage underwriting standards, as banks competed in laxity to gain market share. The Great American Housing Bubble tells the story of the transformation of mortgage lending from a dysfunctional, local affair, featuring short-term, interest-only “bullet” loans, to a robust, national market based around the thirty-year fixed-rate mortgage, a uniquely American innovation that served as the foundation for the middle class. Levitin and Wachter show how Fannie and Freddie’s market power kept risk in check until 2003, when mortgage financing shifted sharply to private-label securitization, as lenders looked for a way to sustain lending volume following an unprecedented refinancing wave. Private-label securitization brought a return of bullet loans, which had lower initial payments—enabling borrowers to borrow more—but much greater back-loaded risks. These loans produced a vast oversupply of underpriced mortgage finance that drove up home prices unsustainably. When the bubble burst, it set off a destructive downward spiral of home prices and foreclosures. Levitin and Wachter propose a rebuild of the housing finance system that ensures the widespread availability of the thirty-year fixed-rate mortgage, while preventing underwriting competition and shifting risk away from the public to private investors.
