摘要：
This
paper analyzes how arrangements in the in the mortgage market impact the dynamics
of housing (boom-bust episodes) and the economy using a structural equilibrium
model with incomplete markets and endogenous adjustment costs. In response to
mortgage rates and credit conditions, the model can generate movements in house
prices, residential investment, and homeownership consistent with the U.S.
housing boom-bust. The propagation to the macroeconomy is asymmetric with much
higher consumption sensitivity during the bust than the boom due to the
endogenous fragility caused by mortgage debt. Mortgages with adjustable-rate
increase the sensitivity of house prices to credit conditions relative to an
economy with fixed-rate loans without refinancing. Macro prudential policies
can mitigate fragility by reducing the magnitude of house price movements
without curtailing homeownership.
