Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Affordable Housing Preservation in Washington, DC uses the case of Washington, DC to examine the past, present, and future of subsidized and unsubsidized affordable housing through the lenses of history, governance, and affordable housing policy and planning. Affordable housing policy in the US has often been focused at the federal level where the laws and funding to build new affordable housing historically have been determined. However, as federal housing subsidies from the 1960s expire and federal funding continues to decline, local governments, tenants and advocates face the difficult challenge of trying to retain affordability amid increasing demand for housing in many American cities. Now, instead of amassing land, financing and sponsors, affordable housing stakeholders must understand the existing resident needs and have access to the market for affordable housing. Arguing for preservation as a way of acknowledging a basic right to the city, this book examines the ways that the broad range of stakeholders engage at the building and city levels. This book identifies the underlying challenges that enable or constrain preservation to demonstrate that effective preservation requires long-term relationships that engage residents, build trust and demonstrate a willingness to share power among residents, advocates and the government. It is of great interest to academics and students as well as policy makers and practitioners internationally in the fields of housing studies and policy, urban studies, social policy, sociology and political economy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rent control, the governmental regulation of the level of payment and tenure rights for rental housing, occupies a small but unique niche within the broad domain of public regulation of markets. The price of housing cannot be regulated by establishing a single price for a given level of quality, as other commodities such as electricity and sugar have been regulated at various times. Rent regulation requires that a price level be established for each individual housing unit, which in turn implies a level of complexity in structure and oversight that is unequaled.Housing provides a sense of security, defines our financial and emotional well-being, and influences our self-definition. Not surprisingly, attempts to regulate its price arouse intense controversy. Residential rent control is praised as a guarantor of affordable housing, excoriated as an indefensible distortion of the market, and both admired and feared as an attempt to transform the very meaning of housing access and ownership.This book provides a thorough assessment of the evolution of rent regulation in North American cities. Contributors sketch rent control's origins, legal status, economic impacts, political dynamics, and social meaning. Case studies of rent regulation in specific North American cities from New York and Washington, DC, to Berkeley and Toronto are also presented. This is an important primer for students, advocates, and practitioners of housing policy and provides essential insights on the intersection of government and markets.

Download or read book New Housing Development and the Impacts on Rental Prices and Housing Cost Burden in the DC Housing Market written by Nicholas Stabile and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concerns around housing affordability and new housing development are crucial issues for many large cities in the United States. Policymakers, researchers, and community activists can have varying views on the best policy tools for addressing these housing issues and the role that market-rate housing can play in addressing affordability at a range of income levels. These questions are central to many housing policy debates in Washington, DC, where this research is focused. Using data from the Census American Community Survey, I investigate the relationship between changes in the number of rental housing units from 2010-2019 and rental prices both at the median and for low-income renters. In estimating linear regression models to explore these associations, I find no statistically significant relationship between changes in rental units and median rent, average rent for low-income renters, or percent of low-income renters that are cost burdened in Washington, DC. While the full models do not provide evidence of a relationship, I find support for the claim that effects of new rental units on rental prices are likely mediated by factors including income, racial demographics, rent controlled housing units, and subsidized affordable housing units. These results highlight the importance of a comprehensive approach to housing policy that utilizes a range of policy tools. Future research should continue to investigate these relationships within different housing submarkets in various cities and would benefit from more granular, timely data on rent prices.
