Logical Follow-On Update to the 2019 Residential Real Estate Market Data Analysis of Negative Equity

Project Information

Project ID:
FHWA-PROJ-21-0011
Project Abstract:

The purpose of this project is to initiate an investigation and to document a continuation of the 2019 findings of the nationwide residential real estate market value recovery since the 2008 real estate market crash and to update the finding results from the 2019 Nationwide Residential Real Estate Market Data Analysis of Negative Equity. The investigation will analyze sales price data for single family residential real estate within 21 states for the Federal Highway Administration to determine whether a continuance of the Temporary Waiver of Methodology for Calculating a Replacement Housing Payment for Negative Equity (Waiver) beyond June 30, 2021 is necessary.

Project Outputs:

The result of this effort is the Temporary Waiver for Methodology for Calculating a Replacement Housing Payment for Negative Equity was determined to no longer be necessary on a nationwide basis, after 11 years of use, because the real estate market was determined to have recovered sufficiently on a nationwide basis that it was no longer applicable. Any State that could justify a continued need for the 49 CFR 24.7 waiver of Federal regulations on a project basis may request a continuation of the waiver for their project. 

Project Outcomes/Impact:

The Temporary Waiver for Methodology for Calculating a Replacement Housing Payment for Negative Equity was sunset June 30, 2021.
