Contents:
Title page; Contents; Preface; Getting in, getting from, getting out. An Introduction; Moving on from shared ownership in the UK; Promoting home ownership through demand-side targeted measures. The case of Norwey; Housing equity among Norwegian home owners; Housing wealth leakage, return migration and transnational housing markets. Experiences of UK-based African-Caribbean home owners; Managing assets and risks through ownership and regeneration. Housing policies in the Netherlands; Economic restructuring in Turkey. Developments in the housing sector since the 2001 crisis.
Summary: This book provides an overview of the effects of home ownership, a housing sector that has grown rapidly in recent years in many countries, not least because this is normally encouraged by governments. The first part of the subtitle, 'Getting in', refers to processes in the development of the homeownership stock including problems of access, which in turn implies issues of affordability, the viability of financial institutions and subsidies. 'Getting from' indicates that this form of housing tenure may provide households with advantages such as wealth accumulation and independence that may not.
