Full Description
Housing finance is central to people's well-being, to the economy and to society as a whole. In this comprehensively updated and extensively revised text, the authors map out the shape of the UK's housing finance system - its public, private and voluntary sectors. The impact of recent change is assessed, as well as the forces that will shape change in the future. Like its predecessor, it will be essential reading for students and practitioners alike.
