"In this brief, we dissect the housing affordability debate, zeroing in on financing conditions that have largely been missing. We lay out the fundamentals of housing economics, survey the current policy landscape, and explain how popular proposals to loosen regulations may not lower housing costs on their own. And we outline the federal policy levers that would actually make housing more affordable."
