The purpose of the Homer Hoyt Institute's Subprime Crisis Research Program is to facilitate the development and dissemination of a research agenda and research product to address critical issues in mortgage markets and their related consequences. This research program is an outgrowth of a Research Roundtable., "Developing a Research Agenda on the Subprime Mortgage Crisis." The Subprime Crisis Research Program is part of HHI's continuing efforts to gain a better understanding of the system to help improve the quality of real estate related decisions.

More on the overview of SCRP is on the SCRP section of the Hoyt Group website, Subprime Crisis Research Program. For more of an introduction please follow this link, Introduction.

Overview of HHI's SCRP Documents

• Events and Reports on Them
• Research Projects of SCRP
• Some Related Research and Other Reports
• Essays on Subprime Crisis in ASI/AF Newseletter

Since in the Events and Reports on Them there are two items of special interest, the links are shown here. They are:

• Research Roundtable Background
• Research Roundtable of October 2007

The importance of this special interest is that the feasibility of a research roundtable to launch Project New Initiative is underway at the time of the opening of the site and participation in various ways may be boosted through conveyance of a better understanding of the role and history of HHI using research roundtables in its decisions on research support.
