Housing Market Regulation
Housing market developments are mainly regulated by the market and sometimes are influenced by the government's policies. The regulation could
balance the market if the housing market goes the wrong direction and help the market run healthily. From the article's analysis for the housing market,
we could know that what government could do is little for the market.
Firstly, the article refer to that loose Monetary policy was a primary cause of the bubble in house prices and activity. Investor appetite for securities
backed by novel mortgages was apparently quite high, which, in turn, drove down the cost of funds to marginal borrowers and borrowers using such
loans. The rise of cheap and readily available credit no doubt stimulated housing demand. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

The collapse of the housing market had far and wide ranging effects in the economy of the United States. While the effects were felt throughout the

Between 2004 and 2006, the Federal Reserve Board raised interest rates from 1% and capping out at to 5.25%. Even with interest rates on the rise,
the housing bubble continued to grow. Why did the bubble continue to grow when typically interest rates increase homeownerships typically declines
as well? Economists look at the lending practices before and after the bubble. Prior to the bubble standard typically included, "documentation of
credit histories of prospective borrowers, their current income and assets, evidence of job stability and pay, and related factors that in theory help a
lender assess a potential borrower's ability to pay for a mortgage." During the 2000's lending practices eased with the government continuing to push
their policy on continuing to grow homeownership numbers. To continue homeownership lenders developed new innovative loans such as, "piggy back
loans (80/20), adjustable rate mortgages, stated income loans, negative amortization mortgages, and multi–layered risked." These loans gave
homeowners many options as with piggy back loans, allowed consumers to purchase a home without having to put down a down payment, however
they would have a first and second mortgage. Many consumers also opted for adjustable rate mortgages such as interest only loans. These loans
allowed the consumer to purchase a home that would most likely be out of their monetary range, with

INTRODUCTION In this essay, I will examine the factors that determine the price of houses in UK housing market. Firstly we will have a look the
past and the recent history of UK housing market. The UK housing market has been booming in the past few years, with prices rising much faster
than household incomes. After its dramatic crash in the early 1990s, the UK housing market has staged a remarkable recovery.1 In the early 1980s
widespread financial deregulation raised the availability of mortgage finance and stimulated the demand for housing. Real house prices rose by over
4ВЅ percent per annum on average during the decade, with nominal house price inflation peaking at 28 per cent in 1988. Monetary policy was

Buyers place offers for a property that the seller can either accept or reject.4 When the market demand for properties in a particular area is high
and when there is a shortage of good quality properties then the balance of power in the market shifts towards the seller. This is because there is
likely to be excess demand in the market for good properties. Sellers can wait for offers on their property to reach their minimum selling price.
Conversely when demand both for new and older housing is weak and when there is a glut of properties available on the market, then the power
switches to potential buyers. They have a much wider choice of housing available and they should be able to negotiate a price that is lower than the
published price4. When the demand for houses in a particular area increases, perhaps because of an inflow of population into the area, or a rise in
incomes following a fall in unemployment, there is upward pressure on market prices.4 Often the supply of available housing in the market is
relatively inelastic. This is because there are time lags between a change in price and an increase in the supply of new properties becoming available,
or other homeowners deciding to put their properties onto the market. When demand shifts outwards and supply is inelastic the result is a large rise in

(Nasdaq, n.d.) Based on the data he was seeing with this bubble and the performance of the housing market, Shiller predicted a looming housing market
collapse. (Brand, 2005)
Housing Bubble Collapse
True to Shiller's prediction, the housing bubble soon collapsed, causing the worst housing crash in American history (DeGrace, 2011) that reverberated
around the world. Let us look at what brought us to this point.
Stock market crash of 2000. Following the stock market crash in 2000, caused by the burst of the dot com bubble (DeGrace, The Dot Com Bubble
Burst that Caused the 2000 Stock Market Crash, 2011), shaky investors turned to the housing market. Interest rates were relatively low. (Whitney, 2007)
New loan options such as adjustable rate mortgages (ARMs), interest–only loans with the principal payment due at a later date ("balloon payments"),
and zero–down loans gained prominence. Banks lowered their borrowing standards and offered subprime loans, and then sold these loans with
undeserved AAA bond ratings to unsuspecting foreign and other investors. Adding to this momentum was the encouragement of the Federal Reserve and
mortgage lenders. This all served to drive up home prices, sometimes at astronomical levels. (DeGrace, 2011)

This led to the recession of 81–82 but managed to get inflation under 5% from the high double digits it was under Nixon at the cost of a rather high
unemployment rate of 10%. Many argue that this and other policies under the Reagan administration known as Reagonomics, were what led to the
economic prosperity that we enjoyed in the 90's and 2000's. Rather than discuss what caused the economic growth of the era, we examine a few of the
effects it had on markets, especially housing.
The family home has always been a major part of the American dream, but it had an even bigger role in the Great Recession. Under legislative
pressure banks eased up on a lot of the loans that they gave out. According to Peicuti (2014), "In the 2000s, the deregulation of the financial system and
development of the originate–to–distribute banking model led commercial banks to finance subprime mortgages" (p.7). It then goes on to lists several
characteristics that these borrowers may have including, "relatively high default probability as evidenced by, for example, a credit bureau risk...
bankruptcy in the last five years... debt–service–to–income ratio of 50 percent or greater" (p.7). All of this tells us the same story, these were risky
loans to make. We've learned from class that the interest rate is an indicator of the amount of risk on an asset. These loans however were not properly
assessed for the amount of risk on them. In short, the banks had taken on more risk than they

Reforming the Housing Market
Today, because of the way congress has structured GSEs Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac undermine market discipline and actualize reverse incentives,
leading to immoral behavior by market participants. The promise of market discipline is its ability to identify risk and deters immoral behavior. The
2008 financial crisis was induced by the dissolution of market discipline and rampant immoral behavior. Thus, to safeguard against another financial
crisis congress should address moral hazard and restore market discipline. The first recommendation is to reduce and limit the size of Fannie Mae and
Freddie Mac. Which would allow open competition in the mortgage industry and enable the market to decide the best investments. The second
recommendation is to impose stricter reporting and accounting regulations to improve transparency and disclosure of GSEs' activities and financial
position. Transparency of information will allow investors to have more relevant information and giving them the ability to identify risk in a timely
manner.
Addressing Transparency and Disclosure of GSEs
Government's backing of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac has enabled these corporations to engage in more risk than necessary. During 2003, Fannie

Moving on to the next process the secondary market. The secondary market is the market for buying and selling mortgages.
"Lenders might choose to keep the mortgages that they originate in their own portfolios, or they might sell them to the secondary market. If a
mortgage originator sells the mortgage in the secondary mortgage, the purchaser of the mortgage could choose to hold the mortgage itself or to
securitize it in a pool of mortgages. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac securitize mortgages that conform to their criteria. Ginnie Mae guarantees MBS

Housing Market And The Housing Crisis
It has been 7 years since the housing bubble burst and the financial systems collapsed back in 2008. Since then, some will say that the housing
market, as a majority, has healed and regained footing but is that entirely accurate? It has been an up and down rollercoaster since the collapse of
2008, however the housing market has only started to recover within the past 2 years. "Right now, I would say we are 64% back to normal and a
lot of what is driving the housing market's strength is existing home sales, but prices have also helped push the recovery" (Jed Kolko, Trulia). As
stated in the first paper, the housing bubble burst because of the increase in interest rates that put homeownership out of reach for some buyers. This
ultimately caused homes to become unaffordable, leading to defaults, foreclosures, and short sales. More so, on December 30, 2008, the home price
index reported the largest dip in home prices ever recorded, losing 33% from its 2006 peak to 2012. This financial crisis, unanticipated by most,
caused the United States to go into a recession and has been known to be most significant risk to our economy. It was the beginning of last decade,
2000, when real estate prices rose at an unprecedented rate, subsequently leading to the bursting of the housing bubble starting in 2006.

power which directly affects the housing market. As the Baby Boomer Generation begins to retire and move on from where they currently live, the
housing market will suddenly experience a boom in available housing. The issue then becomes that the Millennial Generation does not currently

prices: a)Increase in immigrants: The main reason for the rise in prices of houses is the increase in population of the nation due to the emergence of
immigrants and restrictive planning regulation that have limited the release of new land for development (Street A, 2012). As with the increase in
demand, the supply of houses goes down. b)Foreign Investment Boom: Demand for the property by foreign investors have also been increased from

The US Housing Market Bubble
When researching past economic recoveries, the housing market is the one to drive the economy out of recession. That being said, this economic
recession hasn't had much of an impact until recently. America's housing boom had a tremendous influence on the economy for its low prices and flow
of new home construction.
The new construction market in the mid 2000's was flourishing. People saw building a home as an opportunity for a solid investment because prices
and rates were so low that certain homes could depreciate extremely slowly. However, there would be a negative effect from all this low–cost new
construction and few were aware of just how devastating it would be to the new construction market.
In 2005, the market was flooded with a vast array of homes that were all selling at a low price, and this allowed people to buy and sell homes with
minimal effort. Banks were being reckless with their lending, not giving enough attention to who they were giving mortgages to, as virtually anybody
with a decent credit score could go to a bank and get a mortgage, sometimes without even going to see if the land and ability for development was
there. This created a housing bubble in 2006, and would inevitably come back to hurt a wide range of industries, but few were as damaged as the new
construction industry.

Housing Market Failure
The housing market crash of 2007 to 2009 is said to be one of the main reasons for the housing market crash. The crisis occurred when homeowners
were not able to make payments on their mortgage. Homeowners were unable to keep up with payments when low introductory rates converted to
regular rates. Real estate property began to lose its value, leaving many homeowners with a negative equity. Soon after the housing bubble the
government took over (two GSEs) Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, in order to prevent the financial crisis from getting any worse In the most recent

Housing Markets And The Housing Crisis
Seven years removed from recession, American homeowners are beginning to rebound from the hold created by the housing crisis. Throughout history,
the housing market has been a key indicator of financial stability and the real economy. Housing booms and bust are often reflections on the mortgage
market, labor mobility and consumer spending. With interest rates near zero, at the moment, the real estate market has experienced a steady rise in new
and existing home sales, prices and mortgages. Likewise, developments in the U.S. housing market have been instrumental to gains in home
improvement spending. In 2015, home improvement retailers, Lowe's and Home Depot have delivered better than expected results thanks to the
housing market recovery. Despite what may seem like a modest recovery, there remains significant concerns that the recovery will be short lived. Some
evidence would suggest that interest rates, a flood of foreign investments, income inequality and the same culprits from 2008 are re–inflating a housing
bubble.
Mortgage Rates By the end of 2015, The Federal Reserve will raise interests and continue to do so throughout the following years. Simply put, interest
rates have a direct impact on borrowing costs and by increasing interest rates; mortgage rates can jump as well. Long term mortgage rates are guided by

The Housing Market And Its Effects On The Economy
Throughout the 90 's and the turn of the century, the housing market has stood as an economic pillar, supporting growth and prosperity and assisting
generations in upward momentum from the lower to middle class. This is why the 2008 housing market crash had such a debilitating effect on the
economy. The crash left millions facing foreclosure and millions more underwater. The burst of the housing bubble even effected international markets,
causing havoc in other countries. These misguided policies were the main source of the financial turbulence that flattened the U.S. economy.
Predatory lending and meticulously intricate loan pooling helped cause the destruction of this market. Essentially, financial institutions were handing
out mortgages to people that were often struggling to repay them, and these Mortgage Backed Securities (MBS 's) were often resold to investors that
were unaware of the systemic risk they had purchased. These high–risk loans were gathered together and sold as low–risk securities due to a lack of
diversity in the overall portfolio. As these toxic MBS 's were resold into the marketplace, they were separated and reorganized, making it extremely
difficult to track the actual value of the derivatives of the bonds.

America's Financial System For The Housing Market
I. Introduction In 2008 America's financial system was brought to a stand still as decades of negligence and financial decisions caused our economy to
sink into the worst recession since the great depression. Cultivating a problem worse than America has seen in roughly a century points one finger not
at a particular cause, but a string of events that finally gave way. Now, eight years later our economy is still recovering, and time has allowed us to look
back at decades of mistakes to try and connect the dots of the perfect storm that collapsed our financial market in 2008. In 2009 Brookings Institution,
one of Washington's oldest think tanks, concluded there were three causes that resulted in the crisis. Economists Martin Baily and Douglas Elliot stated
that the results of government intervention in the housing market, the influences Wall Street had on Washington, and global economic forces were the
three main causes of the economic collapse. They believed that a housing bubble inflated when Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, two
government–sponsored enterprises, intervened in the housing market. The banking industry was called out to be blamed for years of manipulation of
our political and financial systems. Lastly, Baily and Elliot cite the global economy and the existence of a credit boom throughout European and Asian
nations. Low inflation and consistent growth throughout the world economy spiked investors' interest in acquiring riskier investments, which

Housing Markets : Housing Market
Housing market data reflects more pronounced improvement lately – and that's good news for the economy, for credit union members and for credit
union operations.
Housing's importance to the economy is undeniable, with a healthy housing market essential to robust economic growth historically.
Overall, housing accounts for nearly 20% of U.S. economic activity: private residential investment which includes construction of new single–family
and multifamily structures, residential remodeling, production of manufactured homes and brokers' fees averages roughly 5% of GDP historically.
While housing services (including gross rents paid by renters, owners ' imputed rent and utility payments) averages roughly 13% of GDP.
Economists estimate that in 2014, building an average single–family home kept 2.97 FTE workers employed for a full year, while building an average
rental apartment generated 1.13 FTE full–year jobs and each $100,000 spent on remodeling activity generated 0.89 jobs on average.
Builders – men and women with skin in the game – now clearly believe the housing market is in great shape. The National Association of Home
Builders (NAHB) Housing Market Index is based on a monthly survey of builders who rate market conditions for the sale of new homes at the present
time and in the next six months as well as the traffic of prospective buyers of new homes. The index – which stood at 53 in July of 2014, rose to 58 at

that all changed in 2007. As showed by Paramount Pictures movie "The Big Short" shows very entertainingly how banks and regulation have made
America 's housing market into a system of fraud and theft by big banks. "But that 's in the past" some may say, but as former housing market crash
investor and former owner of Multimillion dollar investing firm Michael J. Burry stated, "Today 's economy is showing telltale signs of repeating the
mistakes made in the 2007 crash." (Michael Burry Blog) An analysis of the housing market of today will reveal many signs of an inevitable crash such
as: the minimum wage fallacy, The prices of housing rising, the government supporting bad loans, and why the government cannot stop it. To begin
with, before I can explain anything you have to understand that your mortgage is a lot more complicated than even you realize. Your mortgage, like
everyone else 's, is from a bank, and this bank groups your mortgage with thousands of of other mortgages and this is called a mortgage bond. This

The increase of the property market ultimately denies new business with low financial support.
Responsible for the increase in the housing market are foreign buyer's – purchasing in cash, as well as the provincial government. Thus, the government
may implicate laws and regulation in order to stop this increase. Although there are multiple efforts being made by the government, their negative
repercussions may be more severe. The implementation of "price caps" by the government will aid in lowering the house market. These price caps
will asses the property on the basis of its size and features and will have a "max price" it can be listed for. Likewise, the government may further
their efforts by Imposing a speculation tax on people who flip houses within a short period, perhaps within two or four years of purchase. The tax
could apply to all homes or be limited to non–principal residences. These possible efforts will lead to the demise of the GTA housing market

The ASIC chairman Greg Medcraft compared the situation in Melbourne and Sydney to the 2008 US housing slump. "Everyone thought prices would
keep going up and obviously they didn't. We're a different economy with different mortgage structures, but you look around the world and history
shows that the average ration from prices to incomes is something very important in residential housing." Further interest rates cuts risks making
property even less affordable for the younger generations and widening the wealth gap between property owners and those who don't own a property,
since the prices are rising at a greater pace than the average income. The RBAs decision to lower interest rates allowed house price inflation to continue
significantly in the capital cities. If the current housing market keeps its direction, a bust could occur taking the Australian economy drop if interest
rates were to suddenly rises.
The low interest rate in Australia effects the housing market. Low interest rates allow property prices to push higher creating an unbalanced ratio

Between 2004 and 2006, the Federal Reserve Board raised interest rates from 1% and capping out at to 5.25%. Even with interest rates on the rise, the housing bubble continued to grow. Why did the bubble continue to grow when typically interest rates increase homeownerships typically declines as well? Economists look at the lending practices before and after the bubble. Prior to the bubble standard typically included, "documentation of credit histories of prospective borrowers, their current income and assets, evidence of job stability and pay, and related factors that in theory help a lender assess a potential borrower's ability to pay for a mortgage." During the 2000's lending practices eased with the government continuing to push their policy on continuing to grow homeownership numbers. To continue homeownership lenders developed new innovative loans such as, "piggy back loans (80/20), adjustable rate mortgages, stated income loans, negative amortization mortgages, and multi–layered risked." These loans gave homeowners many options as with piggy back loans, allowed consumers to purchase a home without having to put down a down payment, however they would have a first and second mortgage.

  • 6. The Uk Housing Market INTRODUCTION In this essay, I will examine the factors that determine the price of houses in UK housing market. Firstly we will have a look the past and the recent history of UK housing market. The UK housing market has been booming in the past few years, with prices rising much faster than household incomes. After its dramatic crash in the early 1990s, the UK housing market has staged a remarkable recovery.1 In the early 1980s widespread financial deregulation raised the availability of mortgage finance and stimulated the demand for housing. Real house prices rose by over 4ВЅ percent per annum on average during the decade, with nominal house price inflation peaking at 28 per cent in 1988. Monetary policy was subsequently tightened...

Buyers place offers for a property that the seller can either accept or reject.4 When the market demand for properties in a particular area is high and when there is a shortage of good quality properties then the balance of power in the market shifts towards the seller. This is because there is likely to be excess demand in the market for good properties. Sellers can wait for offers on their property to reach their minimum selling price. Conversely when demand both for new and older housing is weak and when there is a glut of properties available on the market, then the power switches to potential buyers. They have a much wider choice of housing available and they should be able to negotiate a price that is lower than the published price4. When the demand for houses in a particular area increases, perhaps because of an inflow of population into the area, or a rise in incomes following a fall in unemployment, there is upward pressure on market prices.4 Often the supply of available housing in the market is relatively inelastic. This is because there are time lags between a change in price and an increase in the supply of new properties becoming available, or other homeowners deciding to put their properties onto the market. When demand shifts outwards and supply is inelastic the result is a large rise in ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Studies show that, since 1976, the residential population has doubled, with more than 240000 people living in the Area and the ownership share has increased by almost two times since 1996 (City of Toronto. 2014b). Accordingly, the City 's housing market is dealing with more and more housing needs (CHBA, 2012; Landau, 2013). Also, Toronto Official Plan identifies the Area, as a place to accommodate significant population growth by 2041 (Ontario. Ministry of Finance, 2014).

To overcome the limitations in land supply, a number of municipal and provincial policies and programs have been initialized to redirect growth, intensification to the existing built–up sites in the Area. These policies promote transforming or conversion of brown–field sites (formerly–deteriorating industrial and commercial sites) as well as improvement of the un–/under–utilized lands and buildings, and at–grade parking lots, for high/dense condominium developments (Pantalone, 2014). The City permits the conversion through re–zoning or re–designating of land from one use to the other, which also overcomes the density controls imposed on those lands. For example, employment or brownfield lands to mixed–use or residential developments (Lehrer & Wieditz, 2009). The conversion of land from one use to another requires an amendment to zoning bylaws and, sometimes, an amendment to the municipal Official Plan. This conversion is possible when the developers make a S37 agreement, Density Bonusing agreement with the City of Toronto. 5.1.4Housing Affordability Issues The City of Toronto is recognized for its highest market –based economy and housing costs in the country (Wellesley Institute, 2014).

(Nasdaq, n.d.) Based on the data he was seeing with this bubble and the performance of the housing market, Shiller predicted a looming housing market collapse. (Brand, 2005) Housing Bubble Collapse True to Shiller's prediction, the housing bubble soon collapsed, causing the worst housing crash in American history (DeGrace, 2011) that reverberated around the world. Let us look at what brought us to this point. Stock market crash of 2000. Following the stock market crash in 2000, caused by the burst of the dot com bubble (DeGrace, The Dot Com Bubble Burst that Caused the 2000 Stock Market Crash, 2011), shaky investors turned to the housing market. Interest rates were relatively low. (Whitney, 2007) New loan options such as adjustable rate mortgages (ARMs), interest–only loans with the principal payment due at a later date ("balloon payments"), and zero–down loans gained prominence. Banks lowered their borrowing standards and offered subprime loans, and then sold these loans with undeserved AAA bond ratings to unsuspecting foreign and other investors. Adding to this momentum was the encouragement of the Federal Reserve and mortgage lenders. This all served to drive up home prices, sometimes at astronomical levels.

  • 9. The Boom And Bust Of The Housing Market Bubble As a member of the Millennial's and as a student of economics, The Great Recession, the greatest economic downturn we've seen in 70 years is truly an intriguing topic. It is the first economic crisis that many of my generation can truly say we lived through. With the burst of the housing bubble and the failure of various financial institutions, the United States was dragged kicking and screaming from the prosperous age of nearly uninterrupted economic growth since the early eighties, into an unemployment rate of over 9% and a decline in Real GDP in the first time in decades. Years after the end of the recession we still reel from its effects. How did the fiscal crisis begin in the first place? What institutions helped exasperate the...

This led to the recession of 81–82 but managed to get inflation under 5% from the high double digits it was under Nixon at the cost of a rather high unemployment rate of 10%. Many argue that this and other policies under the Reagan administration known as Reagonomics, were what led to the economic prosperity that we enjoyed in the 90's and 2000's. Rather than discuss what caused the economic growth of the era, we examine a few of the effects it had on markets, especially housing. The family home has always been a major part of the American dream, but it had an even bigger role in the Great Recession. Under legislative pressure banks eased up on a lot of the loans that they gave out. According to Peicuti (2014), "In the 2000s, the deregulation of the financial system and development of the originate–to–distribute banking model led commercial banks to finance subprime mortgages" (p.7). It then goes on to lists several characteristics that these borrowers may have including, "relatively high default probability as evidenced by, for example, a credit bureau risk... bankruptcy in the last five years... debt–service–to–income ratio of 50 percent or greater" (p.7). All of this tells us the same story, these were risky loans to make. We've learned from class that the interest rate is an indicator of the amount of risk on an asset. These loans however were not properly assessed for the amount of risk on them. In short, the banks had taken on more risk than they ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Many analysts studying the markets knew that this day would come to surface. Among the citizens, few actually knew the problems the housing market was having while many of them just noticed that they were now able to purchase their dream home. Many Americans that knew that background however, were not aware of what exactly sparked this issue, nor what was in store for them (Natl.

While this action may be a short term cost to a long term solution, the generation paying the price will be Generation Y and the Millennial. One major factor that comes with job market regulation is the hike of minimum wage in order to meet the rising costs of every day goods.

The On The Housing Market Essay Reforming the Housing Market Today, because of the way congress has structured GSEs Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac undermine market discipline and actualize reverse incentives, leading to immoral behavior by market participants. The promise of market discipline is its ability to identify risk and deters immoral behavior. The 2008 financial crisis was induced by the dissolution of market discipline and rampant immoral behavior. Thus, to safeguard against another financial crisis congress should address moral hazard and restore market discipline. The first recommendation is to reduce and limit the size of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Which would allow open competition in the mortgage industry and enable the market to decide the best investments. The second recommendation is to impose stricter reporting and accounting regulations to improve transparency and disclosure of GSEs' activities and financial position. Transparency of information will allow investors to have more relevant information and giving them the ability to identify risk in a timely manner. Addressing Transparency and Disclosure of GSEs Government's backing of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac has enabled these corporations to engage in more risk than necessary. During 2003, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac had a combined outstanding debt that was equaled 39 percent of the total outstanding U.S. public debt (Thomas, 2008, p. 1).

  • 16. Housing Market And The Housing Crisis It has been 7 years since the housing bubble burst and the financial systems collapsed back in 2008. Since then, some will say that the housing market, as a majority, has healed and regained footing but is that entirely accurate? It has been an up and down rollercoaster since the collapse of 2008, however the housing market has only started to recover within the past 2 years. "Right now, I would say we are 64% back to normal and a lot of what is driving the housing market's strength is existing home sales, but prices have also helped push the recovery" (Jed Kolko, Trulia). As stated in the first paper, the housing bubble burst because of the increase in interest rates that put homeownership out of reach for some buyers. This ultimately caused homes to become unaffordable, leading to defaults, foreclosures, and short sales. More so, on December 30, 2008, the home price index reported the largest dip in home prices ever recorded, losing 33% from its 2006 peak to 2012. This financial crisis, unanticipated by most, caused the United States to go into a recession and has been known to be most significant risk to our economy. It was the beginning of last decade, 2000, when real estate prices rose at an unprecedented rate, subsequently leading to the bursting of the housing bubble starting in 2006.

The "Baby Boomer" Generation and the "Millennial" Generation are currently experiencing a great disparity gap between the two of them, both in pay and in purchasing power which directly affects the housing market. As the Baby Boomer Generation begins to retire and move on from where they currently live, the housing market will suddenly experience a boom in available housing. The issue then becomes that the Millennial Generation does not currently have the economic buying power to purchase these houses. This issue is currently visible in the Bay Area where housing is at an all time high. Houses are currently being listed as Baby Boomers want to move out of the higher cost of living areas into lower cost of living areas when they retire, but their current listing prices are prohibitively expensive at the current wages the new buying generation makes. These houses are being listed for longer periods of time, many homes listed over a year, with no successful bids.

Creative marketers continued to bend mortgage underwriting guidelines to increase volume and profit. Investors on Wall Street have voracious appetites for steady returns on investments and the mortgage securitization market was no exception. Business executives continued to make it easier to borrow money, thus increasing their returns as these income streams were bundled and sold again and again on the secondary market. No one noticed the volatility that was created by continuing down the path of easy money. As the market collapsed, there was no small correction to the rules and regulations that would save the inevitable implosion.

Economists Martin Baily and Douglas Elliot stated that the results of government intervention in the housing market, the influences Wall Street had on Washington, and global economic forces were the three main causes of the economic collapse. They believed that a housing bubble inflated when Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, two government–sponsored enterprises, intervened in the housing market.

"Housing is always the best investment." If you have been told this, you have been told a lie.

Burry stated, "Today 's economy is showing telltale signs of repeating the mistakes made in the 2007 crash."

  • 35. Gentrification and White Preference in the Rhode Island... The loss of public housing and the expanse of the wealth gap throughout the state of Rhode Island has been a rising issue between the critics and supporters of gentrification, in both urban areas such as Providence and wealthy areas such as the island of Newport, among other examples. With the cities under a monopoly headed by the wealth of each neighborhood, one is left to wonder how such a system is fair to all groups. Relatively speaking, it isn't, and the only ones who benefit from such a system are white–skinned.

Cities such as New York, Boston, and San Francisco all have neighborhoods that originally had mostly poor, uneducated African Americans, and now are swelling with young, educated whites that have greatly increased the price of living. In Boston, Charlestown, Jamaica Plains, and Beacon Hill have all experienced intense characteristics of gentrification from the 1970s up until the present, showcasing an increase in the population with at least a bachelor's degree, as well as a large increase in new and renovated buildings. In New York, the most famous example of gentrification is in Harlem, has undergone a process of gentrification after becoming known as the national, and even international symbol for black culture with a vibrancy that is not seen in the suburbs. Finally, in San Francisco, in the bay area, there has been a massive influx of affluent companies that have completely devastated the middle class due to a high rise in wealthy, educated, employees.

Responsible for the increase in the housing market are foreign buyer's – purchasing in cash, as well as the provincial government. Thus, the government may implicate laws and regulation in order to stop this increase. Although there are multiple efforts being made by the government, their negative repercussions may be more severe. The implementation of "price caps" by the government will aid in lowering the house market. These price caps will asses the property on the basis of its size and features and will have a "max price" it can be listed for. Likewise, the government may further their efforts by Imposing a speculation tax on people who flip houses within a short period, perhaps within two or four years of purchase. The tax could apply to all homes or be limited to non–principal residences. These possible efforts will lead to the demise of the GTA housing market In order to achieve these goals The following laws must be implemented by the government of Canada in all three levels of government. With the increase of development in the GTA, the housing market will decrease.

"Everyone thought prices would keep going up and obviously they didn't. We're a different economy with different mortgage structures, but you look around the world and history shows that the average ration from prices to incomes is something very important in residential housing." Further interest rates cuts risks making property even less affordable for the younger generations and widening the wealth gap between property owners and those who don't own a property, since the prices are rising at a greater pace than the average income. The RBAs decision to lower interest rates allowed house price inflation to continue significantly in the capital cities. If the current housing market keeps its direction, a bust could occur taking the Australian economy drop if interest rates were to suddenly rises. The low interest rate in Australia effects the housing market. Low interest rates allow property prices to push higher creating an unbalanced ratio between prices of property and income of owners of property and those who don't.

Our nation has been through some ups and downs the past decade that make many people wonder whether we could experience that of the Great Depression yet again. Though I do not believe there is a way to completely stop any sort of crash whether it be with oil, housing, stocks, and automobiles. At times we will always experience an economic slowdown. "Those who do not learn history are doomed to repeat it." This quote is widely known and should be taken with more consideration by many. I believe this to be a strongly meaningful quote because the recent Great Recession we experienced and the long recovery we have been experiencing is a great example. Many people found themselves having to foreclose their homes, file bankrupt, without a job and many other devastating crisis. Not learning from something of this matter many will find themselves back repeating this time and time again. Many people think about money and become greedy in these situations not thinking about the outcomes and effects it could have. Not just in the area of the housing market, but with jobs, credit, and more. Learning from something this devastating the first time is crucial. The housing market high in the 2000s and then the quick decline is a great example why everyone needs to be smart with every decision they make.
