Abstract

The Housing Assistance Supply Experiment (HASE) was undertaken primarily to demonstrate how a full-scale housing allowance program would affect local housing markets; in particular, how it would affect the price of housing services. If program-induced price increases were large, they would disrupt the housing market and divert program subsidies from their intended recipients. In the outcome, however, price effects caused by the experimental program were so small as to be negligible. Section II examines the changes in the price of rental housing services that occurred in the experimental sites during the first three years of the allowance program. Section III determines that the allowance program had such a small effect on housing prices because it caused only a modest increase in housing demand and because housing supply responds to demand shifts with surprising ease. Section IV assesses the generalizability of the price effects found in the HASE sites, and discusses ways in which the results improve the understanding of housing-market behavior

Abstract

Two contrasting methods of subsidizing existing housing are "housing allowances," which rely on the discipline of the market to control price increases, and "Section 8 assistance," which uses institutional regulations to control them. Contrary to preprogram predictions, evidence from actual program operations shows that the market outperforms regulation. Housing allowances cause a 2 percent increase, while Section 8 assistance causes a 26 percent increase, in the price of participants' housing. The Section 8 price increases mean that a substantial portion of the federal subsidy is diverted from participants to their landlords. To prevent that diversion, the Section 8 rules could be revised as follows: structure the subsidy so tenants pay the marginal rent dollar; pay the subsidy directly to tenants so they know they pay the marginal rent dollar; and remove the rent ceiling so it can no longer act as a rent target.
