Source: Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight (OFHEO)
This Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight (OFHEO) research paper analyzes differences in recent price trends for homes with different types of financing and borrower characteristics. The work follows preliminary research published in January that uncovered relative price weakness for homes not purchased with Enterprise-financed mortgages. This paper is part of OFHEO’s ongoing effort to enhance public understanding of the nation’s housing finance system. The paper was prepared by Andrew Leventis of the Office of Policy Analysis and Research. Patrick J. Lawler, Robert S. Seiler Jr., Jesse Weiher, and Bob Collender provided helpful comments.
