Abstract

Paramount in Norwegian housing policy is the idea that everyone has the right to safe, secure and adequate housing. A key tenet is that people should be able to own their own homes. Start-up Loan (Startlån) is one of many interventions in Norway to support homeownership among individuals and families in economic difficulty or special needs. There is a strong interest in similar interventions from other countries, such as "Right-to-Buy" in the United Kingdom, as evidenced in the Housing Commission Report "Room for everyone. A social housing policy for the future." Effect of interventions to improve access to homeownership1. Four studies examining the effect of interventions to improve access to home ownership met our inclusion criteria. 2. The included studies had low methodological quality and a high risk of bias. 3. One study showed a significant advantage for the intervention group after 4 years, but after 10 years this effect was no longer significant. 4. The quality of the evidence was assessed to be low or very low. 5. We are therefore uncertain whether these interventions increase homeownership among low-income households. Experiences of interventions to improve access to homeownership 1. Eleven studies examining the experiences of participants in interventions to improve access to homeownership met our inclusion criteria. 2. The included studies had low methodological quality. 3. We identified both positive and negative experiences related to the interventions.
