Billion Dollar Home Subsidy Studied
Washington talks a direct $1 billion housing subsidy plan to mobilize up to $4 billion private capital. The proposal would save the government a large share of housing costs and use the housing administration to guaranty loans for borrowers, with private lenders supplying the balance. An example outlines a borrower with $5000 income pursuing an $8000 house, receiving 20 percent from the government and 80 percent from a loan backed by an insurance guarantor. Supporters say it would not divert private finance and would close the gap between rents and construction costs while two other government spending fields would aid recovery without competing with private enterprise.
