The National Housing Endowment is funding the "State of the Nation's Housing" report for the ninth year. | The National Housing Endowment, the philanthropic arm of NAHB, will again fund the “State of the Nation’s Housing,” an annual report that has been produced by the Harvard University Joint Center for Housing Studies since 1988.
This will be the ninth year the endowment has funded the report.
“The State of the Nation’s Housing” report provides essential housing information, including:
- A current assessment of housing’s role in the economy and its continued strength
- Housing affordability challenges
- House price appreciation and trends
- Evolving rental markets
- Demographics driving the housing market
The report serves as an essential resource for both public policy makers and private decision makers in the housing industry.
The endowment is continuing to support the Joint Center’s housing report by providing the center $24,000 over the next three years.
“We are truly proud of our relationship with Harvard University and the Joint Center for Housing Studies,” said Gary Garczynski, chairman of the endowment and 2002 NAHB president. “This report exemplifies the National Housing Endowment’s goal to support academic and field research that identifies and supports independent research that will advance the state of the residential construction industry.”
To order a copy of the “State of the Nation’s Housing,” e-mail Elizabeth England, program coordinator at the Harvard University Joint Center for Housing Studies, or call her at 617-495-7640. The report can also be downloaded from the Joint Center’s Web site at www.jchs.harvard.edu.
