Negative equity and British housing in the 1990s: cause and effect

Auteurs :
GENTLE, C.

CORNFORD, J.

Description :
The paper is concerned with the emergence in the early 1990s of a large group of domestic mortgage holders whose property had fallen below the value of the mortgage advance used to purchase that property. This emergence is traced to the conjunction of the long-term trend towards wider home-ownership and the effects of deregulation of the financial system in the 1980s. It affects certain social groups living in particular places, least well placed to help themselves out of debt.
