Housing Affordability

Two Different Affordability Dimensions
–
–
Housing Price (wide range of Price-Income Ratios: 2-7
years, beyond threshold need to lift supply constraints)
Housing Finance Services (credit affordability factors:
down-payment, interest rate, maturity, debt-to-income)

Access to HF differs greatly: small, instable,
fragmented systems in emerging economies:
–
–
–
–
–
Excessive proportion “dead” RE assets (% GDP)
Unaffordable housing (delayed access, retained savings,
costly incremental construction)
Smaller inefficient real estate industry (impact growth)
Perceived need for more subsidies (vicious circle)
Higher risk exposure of lenders, banking and fiscal crisis 6

Affordable Housing Assets to Finance
 Property Rights and Urban Laws
– Duly established, transferable, registered property
rights (special transaction costs, co-ownership issues)
– Market-sensitive, realist land development,
construction licensing and urban planning tools
– Sound national / local taxation of housing and HF
– Market sensitive rental regulations
 Efficient real estate industry
Public/private developers, building code, quality
insurance, public contracting, etc.
10
Need of Effective Social Housing Policy
 State focus on social housing (use market to leverage
credit, no excessive reliance on earmarked and public funds)
 Comprehensive urban development and social
housing policy (infrastructure, rehabilitation, slum upgrade,
subsidies, management/privatization public stock, titling)
 Transparent, targeted demand-driven subsidies to
beneficiaries (buy-down, vouchers, advisory), or
partial guarantees to lenders and investors (SMM)
 Micro-finance of housing for lowest income groups
(limited affordability, but flexible for small amounts)`
11
Pre-Requisites for Housing Finance
 Macroeconomic stability (inflation, real rates, forex)
 Liberalized financial system, playing field
competition, end privileged financial circuits
(monopoly, poor debt recovery, subsidies, earmarked funds)
 Developed Financial Infrastructure
 Efficient regulations & oversight
 Efficient accounting and payment systems
 Credit information system, scoring tools adjusted
to lower/informal income groups
 Professional appraisal (standards & data issues) 12
Pre-Requisites for Housing Finance
 Related insurance products (damage, death, disability)
 Enforceable property rights as credit collateral
• registered undisputed property rights (various)
• actual foreclosure and eviction (law, practice)
• permitted non-judiciary fast track ?
• trust & leasing tools ? alternative debt recovery ?
• civil code / common law / Islamic regimes differ
• political & judiciary support/hostility to lenders?
13
Pre-Requisites for Housing Lending
 Banks limit credit accessibility to low-risk higherincome and apply large margins because of:
 Conservative retail strategy, other profitable assets
 Hard to manage larger transformation & credit risks
 Limited experience in special multi-function industry
(distribution, technology, funding, productivity, etc. )
 Limited capital and long term funding
 Time needed to reach scale effects and profits
 Limited role cross border integration (domestic markets,
excessive long-term foreign exchange to households)
14
Affordable Housing Finance
 Potential growing role of public/private credit insurance:
variants, adverse selection issues, regulations ?
 Sound & affordable amortization (indexation issue), as
well as proper standardization & information framework
15
Capital Markets Funding
 Useful complementary funding to depository (longer
maturity, reduced cash-flow risks, etc.). Also sizeable,
low-risk papers useful to build capital markets.
 Multiple variants: complex vs. simple, centralized or not,
securitization vs. refinancing, GSE or private, etc
 Also adjust to capital markets, investors, benchmarks
 Securitization : demanding and complex regulation issue
 Failure to export HF models and institutions: S&Ls,
Bausparkassen, housing banks, building s., securitization
