Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, once cornerstones of American homeownership, found themselves in government conservatorship after the 2008 financial crisis. This book explores the ongoing battle over their future, even as they return to profitability. It examines the complex interplay of government policy, international investment, and the American housing market, highlighting why homeownership finance remains a critical unsolved issue in the global economy.
