UW-Madison?s annual real estate conference on June 1 will explore ways to build workable national housing policies in a polarized political environment. Boasting industry, government and academic perspectives, the conference will feature high-profile speakers including Karl ?Chip? Case, co-founder of the S&P/Case-Shiller Home Price Index, and Lawrence Yun, chief economist for the National Association of Realtors. Organizers hope ideas shared at the conference will translate to policies and actions that could spur the lagging housing market and help generate stronger U.S. economic growth.
