Abstract

This paper explores new approaches to address housing financing policies. Some of the most important proposals include: a) focusing on the access to housing rather than on property; b) promoting the housing issue as a business opportunity to attract capital from the private sector; c) incorporating market mechanisms into the access to housing and tasking the State with overseeing such a process.
