Publisher's Synopsis
A bewildering range of legislative change has radically reshaped housing policy in Britain during the 1980s increasing the role and scope of the "free" market. This book provides a clear, up-to-date analysis of housing finance moving from the overarching processes of expenditure control and allocation to a detailed examination of the housing finance system as it operates within each tenure. In conclusion, the authors evaluate the disparate criticisms of the system and outline a coherent strategy for financial reform.
