Podcast I: Land Banking as a Foreclosure Mitigation Strategy with Frank
Alexander, Professor of Law at Emory Law School
The first interview in the series looks at land banking. The current
economic and mortgage crisis has caused the number of foreclosures to
swell, destabilizing neighborhoods by leaving them dotted with vacant and
sometimes abandoned homes. Frank Alexander, Professor of Law at Emory Law
School, discusses the issues and opportunities that land banking
represents for stabilizing communities across the country.
Up next: Visit the series Web site next week for the second podcast
installment with Kristopher Gerardi, an economist in the Research Division
at the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta, who will be talking about loan
modifications.
