Anybody have a sense of how other countries have minimized these problems? I've read about Denmark controlling rents by private landlords, and Sweden helping people finance land in exchange for controlling the sales price. But, really, I'm wondering what things are being tried.
- jdhn 8y agoAs much as people dislike the new tax bill that was passed, it does contain some good moves, namely reducing the amount of mortgage interest that people can deduct from their taxes. Personally, I'd like to go even further and eliminate all government support to Freddie and Fannie. This would remove a lot of government backstops which would cause short term pain, but produce long term gain in the form of a more stable housing market.
