Abstract

Weusemicroeconomicanalysistodeterminetheimpactofpersonalhousingallowancesontenantbehaviorandonthemarket.The minimum and maximum housing expenses defined in the schedule induce discontinuities in the demand function. As a result, the subsidy?initially earmarked for housing consumption ? tends to become a general income subsidy. Turning to the market, we use contract theory to assess (1) potential discrimination by suppliers between benefit recipients and non-recipients, and (2) suppliers? capture of the subsidy. This conceptualization makes it possible to explain certain market-segmentation phenomena and predict likely trends. It views the allowances in the context of housing-policy goals.
