America's Rental Housing: The Key to a Balanced National Policy

America’s Rental Housing- The Key to a Balanced National Policy is the Joint Center for Housing Studies’ latest look at rental housing issues, and in particular the effect that current mortgage market meltdown is having on the wellbeing of renters and the construction and preservation of the rental housing inventory. Its goal is to provide public policy makers, state and local housing agencies and private business leaders engaged in the rental market with information about the role of rental housing in the national housing agenda, and shed light on this important resource at a time when many are rethinking national housing policy.
