Excited to share our work in @osus_info this Friday, 3/7!

🚨 New working paper with @CGorback !

We ask what happens when households are more likely to WANT to own a home for cultural reasons? We find homeownership increases, they're more responsive to credit supply shocks, and more of their retirement portfolios are in real estate. 🧵

- Jacob Cosman, @zillow
- @JimCostelloCRE, @MSCI_Inc
- @FionaGreigDC, @Vanguard_Group

READ THE NEW REPORT: Rental housing demand came roaring back in the second year of the pandemic, but the market is starkly divided by race and #renter incomes. Read our new report, out today, and join us for a livestream at 12 pm ET. #harvardhousingreport

@shoshievass @alon_levy @abiylfoyp @vbolotnyy The GAO and Bipartisan Policy Center have some national reports with case studies that may be helpful.
Perhaps the MTA or PANYNJ have reports, too?

@Key_z_e and I've updated our @nberpubs WP27370.

Housing supply elasticities are fundamental in understanding the recent rise in house prices. We use a foreign demand shock for local housing to provide new housing supply elasticities for the largest 100 US CBSA’s.

How housing supply responds to prices affects choices made by households and firms.

It also impacts the entry cost to a location, governing the equilibrium of spatial models that allow for sorting across space and potentially contributing to resource misallocation.
