Housing Policy in the United States 3rd Edition

Best all around affordable housing book, a must read. Everyone in affordable reads this as a rite of passage to understand what we do. He was also my professor and got me into this world. The guy knows what he is talking about!!!

I don't think there is really any competition for Schwartz in the housing policy textbook arena. The book was comprehensive in the first edition, and it has been updated frequently and well. This latest edition establishes HPITUS as the central text on US housing policy. It covers all the foundational topics and is delivered without favoritism. It should be read first, purchased in hardback, and keep as a resource.

Very well formatted and informative. Many research papers use the information laid out in this book. Highly recommend.

Great synopsis and summaries of US differing housing policies. However, does not go in depth discussion of other housing policy issues such as government support for Fannie/Freddie Mac, Federal Home Loan Banks, mortgage interest deduction

This is a fabulous resource for any class or simply learning about the field. There is a wealth of statistical information and logical organization.

Excellent summary of all the housing policies happening currently in the U.S.

Great up-to-date information regarding general housing policy in US.

Very helpful for Kirk McClures housing class. Need it for midterm and final. I got newest but you'd prob be ok w whatever
