Abstract
The study highlights the need for Latvia to develop a long-term, well-resourced comprehensive housing strategy. Drawing on cross-country experience and a series of illustrative simulations of different types of public support for housing, the study provides practical policy directions to inform the implementation of this strategy. Key recommendations include facilitating long-term housing investment, calibrating housing support for different types of households, developing a more affordable, attractive private rental market, and improving the measurement and monitoring of housing affordability and quality.
