Abstract

The global SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 Pandemic has disrupted public health, economies, and housing markets since early 2020. The shock has called forth a number of policy responses, such as moratoria on foreclosures and evictions, attempts to regulate rents and prices, and a range of subsidies on both supply and demand sides. This paper reviews the state of housing markets and discusses the expected efficacy of alternative policy measures taken or contemplated. Recognizing the provisional nature of any paper written during a large and durable ongoing shock, suggestions for additional research are provided.

压力时期的住房负担能力和应对措施：新冠肺炎大流行期间的初步观察

自2020年初以来，全球SARS-CoV-2/neneneba新冠肺炎大流行扰乱了公共卫生、经济和住房市场。这场冲击引发了一系列政策反应，如暂停取消抵押品赎回权和驱逐，试图监管租金和价格，以及供需双方的一系列补贴。本文回顾了住房市场的状况，并讨论了所采取或考虑的替代政策措施的预期效果。认识到在持续的大规模冲击中撰写的任何论文都是临时性的，因此提出了进一步研究的建议。
