Critics Review
“Home Truths is an excellent text on housing wealth in Australia and is ideal for anyone studying housing markets and policies.” –Urban Policy and Research
“Written by two of Australia’s leading housing researchers … this book makes an outstanding contribution to a neglected aspect of the Australian housing system: housing wealth. This is an excellent addition to the Australian housing literature. The book is well written and logically structured, which ensures that the information provided is disseminated with ease.” –Australasian Journal of Regional Studies
