housing crisis

Housing in the US is a constant source of frustration. On the way up, prospective homebuyers worry that they're missing out on their chance to jump on the housing ladder. On the way down, homeowners worry about losing their equity and their nest egg. So is there a better way? Is there a way to make housing more equitable, and to separate the investment component from the shelter component? On this episode we speak with Daryl Fairweather, the chief economist at Redfin, about a land value tax and how it could help us reposition housing so that it's less of a financial asset that spirals people higher, and blocks so many people out.

The result of the election on June 8 will determine the financial outcome of Britain possibly more than any other in recent memory.

So sit down and listen to Simon Lambert, Georgie Frost and Rachel Rickard Straus explain in simple terms what is at stake.

On the agenda:

Pension triple lock – if you’ve never really understood this, you will now

Energy price cap – that old thing. The only thing left for Theresa May to do to turn into Ed Miliband is to eat a bacon butty badly.

Who will fix the housing crisis and how?

Is GDP now suffering at the prospect of Brexit - and is it really best way to measure a country’s performance?

Elections in Europe – how may they affect our economy?

New probate fees ‘the equivalent of paying £20,000 to renew your passport’ have been scrapped – and other great Tory tax u-turns

Plus

Let’s increase the speed limit to 80mph on motorways. We need something to look forward to.

Enjoy.

The whole financial system has failed us.

Bankers not content with stealing £500bn in the financial crisis have just been handed billions more by their boss at the Bank of England in a desperate attempt to prop up the economy.

We have the lowest level of home ownership for 30 years – to the point of ‘national emergency’.

The economy is regressing.

House prices are falling.

The pound is collapsing.

Foreign companies are queuing up to grab our cut-price industrial crown jewels.

As well as printing more money to hand to bankers this week, the head of the BoE Mark Carney also announced a cut in interest rates from 0.5% to 0.25% - tantalisingly close to zero.

People will borrow more and spend more, is the idea.

This time the bankers won’t keep the money for themselves. This time it’ll be different.

The economy will be saved!

Listen to Simon Lambert and Rachel Rickard Straus pull this argument to pieces as they explain the corruption and the social and financial divides that now define Britain.

Of course, there are other winners from the Bank Rate cut.

A few borrowers with tracker mortgages will pay less.

Also under the microscope:

Banks’ complaints procedures are still useless – don’t they just fob you off to the ombudsman at the first opportunity?

PPI refunds are still on the agenda – some people seem to have forgotten that banks just added it to loans without asking.

And cars. Thank heavens for classics and even the duff ones. They’ll always be there for a little light relief. Unless you’re not interested.

With Georgie Frost.

The Great Recession was characterized by a historic and gigantic wave of foreclosures all around the country. Left and right, people were being removed from their homes. But because of the explosion of mortgage securitization -- the slicing and dicing of financial assets that got Wall Street into so much trouble -- there was often a failure to do the proper paperwork required for such evictions. This week on Odd Lots, we talk to David Dayen, the author of the new book Chain of Title, about a group of activists in Florida who self-taught themselves to become experts on securitization and foreclosure law in order to fight back in court against what they argued was fraudulent activity.

This week we discussed the ‘insanity’ of Britain’s housing market: is it really that bonkers, and what does it mean for you as an investor either way? We based the episode around an article on Buzzfeed by Economist reporter Daniel Knowles. We took his points one-by-one, commenting on each. Along the way we referred to […]
