Affordable Housing Trends
Affordable Housing Garners Greater Attention in Post-Pandemic Environment This new report series from Arbor and Chandan Economics explores the many facets of affordable housing and the major trends shaping the market. It’s a critical time to focus on affordable housing, as pandemic-related headwinds and longstanding structural forces have impacted housing affordability. Key Findings: The pandemic’s economic effects combined with surging rent prices have strained low-income renters. Reduced business income due to the pandemic-related downturn may decrease the value of Low-Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC), requiring developers to seek alternative financing sources. The share of mortgages utilizing the 4% LIHTC remained elevated through second-quarter 2021, reflecting the continued attractiveness of rehabbing versus ground-up development.
