Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The trade-off between risk and return in equity markets is well established. This paper examines the existence of the same trade-off in the single-family housing market. That market is dominated by homeowners, who constitute about two-thirds of U.S. households. For them the choice about how much housing and what house to buy is a joint consumption/investment decision. Furthermore, owner-occupied housing is by nature a lumpy investment whose risk cannot be completely diversified. Does this consumption/investment link negate the risk/return trade-off within the single-family housing market? Theory suggests the link still holds. This paper supplies empirical evidence in support of that theoretical result.

Download or read book Rate of Return on Single Family Housing Investments in the U S 1970 2000 written by Robert Brogan and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Investors owned 15 percent of all single family houses in the U.S. in the year 2000, with a value of fixed assets that dwarfed that of any single manufacturing industry, and approached that of the entire manufacturing sector. Owner occupied and investor owned houses are functionally identical and in the same market, but investors are subject to substantially higher taxes on the ownership of their houses. As change and adjustments occur to bring the single family housing market into equilibrium, the rate of price appreciation that leaves owner occupiers in equilibrium will have investors taking losses and exiting the market, without some compensating differential.The results reported here for the period 1970-2000 support the proposition that the rates of return received by owner occupiers and investors are the same in equilibrium and just equal to the risk adjusted opportunity return. Notwithstanding the adverse tax treatment, investor returns can equal owner occupier returns in the presence of two conditions. First, if investors are in a higher tax bracket than owner occupiers, this raises their tax subsidy since losses on housing investments offset other income, thereby lowering total tax obligations. This reduction in after tax costs is more pronounced when borrowed funds are involved. Second, investors are in a better position than owner occupiers to enter or exit the market as profit opportunities present themselves. If investors can raise the rate of house price appreciation they experience, relative to owner occupiers, by just a fraction of a point, this is enough to bring investors returns into alignment with those of owner occupiers and also with opportunity cost.

Download or read book Low Income Homeownership written by Nicolas P. Retsinas and published by Brookings Institution Press. This book was released on 2004-05-28 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Brookings Institution Press and Harvard University Joint Center for Housing Studies publication A generation ago little attention was focused on low-income homeownership. Today homeownership rates among under-served groups, including low-income households and minorities, have risen to record levels. These groups are no longer at the margin of the housing market; they have benefited from more flexible underwriting standards and greater access to credit. However, there is still a racial/ethnic gap and the homeownership rates of minority and low-income households are still well below the national average. This volume gathers the observations of housing experts on low-income homeownership and its effects on households and communities. The book is divided into five chapters which focus on the following subjects: homeownership trends in the 1990s; overcoming borrower constraints; financial returns to low-income homeowners; low-income loan performance; and the socioeconomic impact of homeownership.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper carries out an asset-pricing analysis of the U.S. metropolitan housing market. We use zip code level housing data to study the cross-sectional role of volatility, price level, stock market risk and idiosyncratic volatility in explaining housing returns. While the related literature tends to focus on the dynamic role of volatility and housing returns within submarkets over time, our risk-return analysis is cross-sectional and covers the national U.S. metropolitan housing market. The study provides a number of important findings on the asset-pricing features of the U.S. housing market. Specifically, we find i) a positive relation between housing returns and volatility with returns rising by 2.48% annually for a 10% rise in volatility, ii) a positive but diminishing price effect on returns, iii) that stock market risk is priced directionally in the housing market and iv) idiosyncratic volatility is priced in housing returns. Our results on the return-volatility-price relation are robust to i) MSA (metropolitan statistical area) clustering effects and ii) differences in socioeconomic characteristics among submarkets related to income, employment rate, managerial employment, owner occupied housing, gross rent and population density.

Download or read book Alternative Ideas in Real Estate Investment written by Arthur L. Schwartz Jr. and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arthur L. Schwartz, Jr. and Steven D. Kapplin The focus of this volume of the ARES Monograph Series is new ideas in real estate investment. Within this volume, empiricial studies, literature reviews, and tutorials examine a broad range of important investment issues. Many new and innovative ideas are presented. This volume should be a rich source of real estate investment ideas for many years to come. Kapplin and Schwartz examine the returns of two types of REITs, as well as that of Master Limited Partnerships (MLP), over the 1987-1989 time period. Their sample consisted of 54 real estate securities; they conclude that these entities did not provide an effective inflation hedge. MLP returns exceeded that of the overall stock market, but the two REIT types did not provide rates-of-return in excess of the marked. An extensive review of the commercial real estate return literature is presented by Fletcher. He focuses upon studies that utilize commingled real estate fund (CREF) data. His detailed overview of the subject provides a much needed synthesis of the current literature. Roulac presents an extensive discussion of the differences in the per spectives of individual versus institutional investors. In his essay, he considers such factors as scale, diversification, and related issues. Addi tionally, he examines a wide range of literature from within academia, 1 INTRODUCTION 2 as well as the opinions of various real estate gurus. He concludes that behavioral factors override economic considerations.

This book was released on 2003 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developers and investors commonly target neighborhoods close to the urban core and with low median incomes as potential growth markets. Investments in these areas however are often perceived by private sector capital as being high risk and low return. An understanding of the predictors of investment volatility and return is critical to investors and homeowners who wish to maximize investment returns and portfolio growth. Moreover, for mortgage lenders who are obligated to invest in a wide spectrum of communities, volatilities in house prices may affect the distribution of their collateral values, the probability of default, and the profitability of lending in certain areas. This paper addresses the following questions: Does appreciation return and volatility in metropolitan house prices vary significantly among zip code areas? Can the variation in appreciation return and volatility among these areas be explained by additional data? This paper uses appreciation and volatility statistics calculated from a repeat sale index of house prices in metropolitan Boston compiled biannually by Case Schiller Weiss (CSW) as well as data gathered from the 2000 U.S. Census and the 1997 Economic Census.
