institutionalized residential segregation practices by encouraging the use of restrictive covenants to preserve the value of neighborhood property values until 1950.

The Federal Housing Administration's racially discriminatory mortgage finance policies further institutionalized residential segregation practices by encouraging the use of restrictive covenants to preserve the value of neighborhood property values until 1950.
