Translating Housing Needs Into Shelter
California Real Estate: the 1980s & 1990s
Author: Brad Inman
Publisher: Inman Books
ISBN: 9781947635227
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 318
Book Description
Journalist Brad Inman Chronicled the California Real Estate Market in a Wide-Ranging Series of Articles The housing market in California continues to be one of the most expensive in the country. Cost and demand have both been rising for decades, resulting in an affordable housing crisis that concerns and impacts policymakers, citizens, and companies across the state. But how did we get here? And how do we solve the problem? These articles, written for a variety of publications between 1985 and 1990, discuss the factors that shaped the housing market in California. Despite the range of topics covered, from infrastructure to environmentalism, affordable housing to technology, one unmistakable trend stands out: the beginnings of the current affordable housing mess. It has been in the works for 40 years and can be squarely put at the doorstep of three main groups: homeowners, environmentalists and gutless politicians. The affordable housing crisis was decades in the making; it will take decades to fix. Long-term solutions will require commitment to the good of the community as a whole rather than to self-interest by individuals and policymakers. In looking back over these articles, I see the same California market that we are familiar with today: rising costs, increasing demand, and a lack of policies to curb these trends. I hope my future articles will highlight new and better trends for California.

Rethinking Rental Housing
Author: John Gilderbloom
Publisher: Temple University Press
ISBN: 1439906718
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 299
Book Description
In recent years, almost daily media attention has been focused on the plight of the homeless in cities across the United States. Drawing upon experiences in the U.S. and Europe, John Gilderbloom and Richard Appelbaum challenge conventional assumptions concerning the operation of housing markets and provide policy alternatives directed at the needs of low- and moderate-income families. Rethinking Rental Housing is a ground-breaking analysis that shows the value of applying a broad sociological approach to urban problems, one that takes into account the basic economic, social, and political dimensions of the urban housing crisis. Gilderbloom and Appelbaum predict that this crisis will worsen in the 1990s and argue that a "supply and demand" approach will not work in this case because housing markets are not competitive. They propose that the most effective approach to affordable housing is to provide non-market alternatives fashioned after European housing programs, particularly the Swedish model. An important feature of this book is the discussion of tenant movements that have tried to implement community values in opposition to values of development and landlord capital. One of the very few publications on rental housing, it is unique in applying a sociological framework to the study of this topic.
