The Future of the U.S. Real Estate Market (Part 3)
May 1, 2012
|
|
Compared to the U.S., housing finance in Canada is less subsidized by the government. In fact, the Canadian government’s housing finance policies do not explicitly favor home ownership unlike the case seen in the U.S. This is likely to come as a surprise to many, given the stereotype that the Canadian economy is largely socialist.

The Future of the U.S. Real Estate Market (Part 2)
Apr 30, 2012
|
|
The home ownership rate was fairly stable prior to WWII, ranging from about 43% to 48%. During the Great Depression, Washington created numerous subsidies in order to boost demand (e.g. government-insured loans from the VA).
By the late 1960s, home ownership soared to nearly 64% where it would largely remain for several decades, buttressed by several additional subsidies and a transformation in housing finance.

The Future of the U.S. Real Estate Market (Part 1)
Apr 28, 2012
|
|
Boosting home ownership rates has been a goal shared by all previous U.S. Administrations. With the housing market still vulnerable, the Obama Administration has been pointing more towards sustainable home ownership. As a part of the ongoing debate on fiscal consolidation, some have raised the question of whether the U.S. should reconsider its role in housing finance.
The United States has a complex housing finance system with numerous measures that explicitly target home ownership. Most of these measures are indirect/off balance sheet in nature such as providing tax expenditure policies and offering federal credit, insurance and guarantee programs.
These programs are also very expensive, and primarily benefit middle- and high-income households.

Krueger Will Not End the Nightmare on Main Street
Aug 30, 2011
|
|
Yesterday, President Obama announced his nomination of Alan Krueger to serve as Chairman of his Council of Economic Advisers. Thus far, this council has been nothing short of an abject failure. Thus, you should already know what to expect from Krueger, another Jewish academic from the Clinton administration.

By now, most of you have heard about AT&T's buyout offer of Deutsche Telekom T-Mobile.
