HOLC refinances cut widespread mortgage losses by 1937
HOLC general manager Charles A. Joas notes that by midsummer 1937 the program had discharged 20 844 mortgages totaling 46 752 363 dollars. Many builders refinanced to prevent foreclosure, turning renters into homeowners and reshaping the national housing landscape amid industrial growth and social change.
A Vision of Home Ownership and Mortgage Realities
The text argues that the American dream of owning a home is undermined by heavy mortgages. It notes that paying interest and principal over time is essential to true ownership, and criticizes the HOLC procedure for delaying real tenure. It concludes that any effort to expand home financing must address these realities and not abandon the goal.
