  1. Housing 2020: What is Shaping the Future of Housing in Virginia

  2. Problems emanating from the housing market forced financial institutions to take massive write-downs on their mortgage portfolios, igniting a broader banking crisis. Amid fears about the strength of banks and severe losses of both housing and stock wealth, consumer confidence plunged 41 percentbelow its lowest previous trough. Households slashed their spending and—for the first time on record—cut their net borrowing.State of the Nation’s Housing 2009
