Abstract
There are no shortages of forecasts for how housing markets and urban development
might change over the next decades as a result of the foreclosure crisis, financial
regulatory reform, the restructuring of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and other seismic
shifts in financial markets and public policy. For many, the volume and pace of change in
recent years in this arena have been overwhelming. What do we know - or think we
know -- about the future of housing markets, housing finance, and homeownership?
What about prospects for rental housing? What will various changes in housing finance
and public policy mean for our urban and suburban futures? Will the new financial
structures and associated policy thrusts align with an agenda of sustainable urban
development and planning or work against it? What about goals of social equity and
efforts to provide decent housing for lower-income households? What policy choices lay
ahead that will be pivotal in answering some of these questions?
