In the beginning, the federal government was involved in supporting the mortgage market (through establishment of the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) and the government-sponsored enterprises) and in promoting construction of low-rent public housing for lower-income families through local public housing authorities (PHAs). Over time, the role of the federal government has shifted away from providing construction-based subsidies to providing rental subsidies; private developers and property owners now play a larger role; and more federal funding has been provided to states and localities.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Libby Perl,Katie Jones,Maggie McCarty\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1500541389\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781500541385\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/15\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 46\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.29lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.02h x 8.50w x 0.10d","brand":"Libby Perl","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48518712033535,"sku":"9781500541385","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b7d268c6-7838-43ea-9110-ebccae8e649a.jpg?v=1778735351","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/overview-of-federal-housing-assistance-libby-perl-9781500541385","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
