HUD STUDY DETAILS EXPERIENCES OF LOW, MEDIUM-INCOME HOMEBUYERS

摘要

A new report from HUD, The Growth of Earnings of Low-Income Households and the Sensitivity of Their Homeownership Choices to Economic and Socio-Demographic Shocks (www.huduser.org/Publications/pdf/Ea rningsOfLow-lncomeHouseholds.pdf), chronicles the post-purchase experiences of low to medium-income (LMI) home-buyers. It examines the families' time spent as homeowners and events that cause the termination of homeowner-ship. The study found that as successful as many LMI purchasers are in the homeownership experience, a few terminate ownership a armingly quickly.
