His research contributions are inextricably bound up with our work on housing and residential mobility, and in association with Rinus Deurloo he made major contributions to how we think about neighborhoods, and communities, and our progress through these neighborhoods. He was a stimulating and unflagging research contributor and our joint work - Households and Housing: Choices and Outcomes in the Housing Market - is a summary of much of his thinking about housing and residential mobility.
And furthermore:
His contributions to both theoretical and policy issues in housing were presented at the biannual meetings of the European Network of Housing Research. In fact he was one of the founding figures in the Network and worked with colleagues in The Netherlands, Sweden, the United Kingdom, and the new Eastern European academic groups to further the outreach of the Housing Network and its contributions both in theory and in more applied settings.
