Affordable rental housing is the subject of Department of Housing and Urban Development’s spring 2011 issue of Evidence Matters. The issue centers on the role rental housing policy plays in housing and community development. Its lead article focuses on several proposals from last October’s Next Generation Housing Policy Conference, sponsored by the White House, about the role of affordable rental homes in improving life outcomes. This issue also examines rental housing market dynamics, the role of banks in financing affordÂable housing, and the debate over a key piece of housing tax policy. Included in the Spring issue:
- Informing the Next Generation of Rental Housing Policy
- A Spotlight on Rental Market Research
- Multibank Consortia Sustain Communities by Advancing Affordable Rental Housing
- Viewpoints: The Mortgage Interest Deduction
