Abstract: The boom and bust in housing during the early twenty-Wrst century has led to renewed interest in the boom and bust in housing between 1920 and 1940. Numerous people have been clamoring for comparisons of the booms and bust in the housing markets in the two periods. In this volume Alex Field, Eugene White, and Steve Gjerstad and Vernon Smith have provided careful analyses to meet this call, based on currently available data. Accurate comparisons of housing markets require good measures of home ownership, homebuilding, and housing prices. In this chapter, we provide new estimates of home values that help to better elucidate the trajectory of prices for the critical years of 1920 to 1940.
