Abstract
A simple model of buyer search in an urban housing market is employed to demonstrate that if some whites are unwilling to sell housing to blacks competitive equilibria in which blacks pay more for housing than whites are sustainable. The model is also used to consider a number of issues in the literature on housing discrimination. Most important, it is shown that in equilibrium the housing market will be racially segmented under a wide variety of conditions.
