Abstract:

This article studies the evolution of housing rents in St. Petersburg between 1880 and 1917 covering an eventful period of Russian and world history. We collect and digitize over 5,000 rental advertisements from historic newspapers, which we use together with geo-coded addresses and detailed structural characteristics to construct a quality-adjusted rent price index in continuous time. We provide the first pre-war and pre-Soviet index based on market data for any Russian housing market. In 1915, one of the world's earliest rent control and tenant protection policies was introduced as a response to soaring prices following the outbreak of World War I. We analyze the impact of this policy: while before the regulation rents were increasing at a similar rapid pace as other consumer prices, the policy reversed this trend. We find evidence for official compliance with the policy, document a rise in tenure duration and strongly increased rent affordability among workers after the introduction of the policy. We conclude that the immediate prelude to the October Revolution was indeed characterized by economic turmoil, but rent affordability and rising rents were no longer the prevailing problems.

Abstract:

Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Architecture, 2003.
Includes bibliographical references (leaves 45-47).
This study has analyzed the rent adjustment mechanism for the multifamily rental housing in the US during the period 1993-2003 for twenty-four US metropolitan areas. The rent adjustment model employed incorporates the principal argument of search theory that vacancy ultimately determines rent levels. Various time lags on the vacancy rate are tested for each metropolitan area in order to better understand the timing of the effect of the vacancy rate on market rents and to find the best fitting model for each metropolitan area. Two kinds of rents are analyzed : the CPI (Consumer Price Index), 'sitting tenant rent' actually paid by the tenants, and MPF (Market Product Fact), the 'asking rent' for the vacant unit. The results of this study clearly indicate that the rent adjustment models under study explain the MPF rent adjustment mechanism better than the CPI rent adjustment model. Chaning the vacancy lag does not improve the CPI rent adjustment mechanism. The results of this study suggest further studies to explore the behaviors of lessors and lessees to explain why CPI rents behaves as they do. The findings identified through this research provide a helpful basis for advancing an improved theoretical and empirical formulation that highlights the complexities of the rent adjustment process. From a practical point of view, the results can help real estate investment analysts to better model and forecast rent changes in residential real estate market.

Abstract:

Urbanisation and growing populations are causing a lack of housing in many metropolitan areas such as Berlin, Germany. Especially tenants of rental units are affected by rapidly increasing housing prices that exhaust a growing share of their income. With a large proportion of its population living in rental units, in-creasing housing prices are a prominent challenge in Germany’s capital. To ap-proach this issue, the parliament of the city state of Berlin has passed a rent cap bill in February 2020. It states that rent prices for units built before 2014 are not allowed to be increased for the next five years, including some exceptions. Fur-ther, rents are not allowed to be higher than the average rent level from June 2019. The rent cap bill is controversial and strongly discussed by many stake-holders. Since the housing market is complex and includes many stakeholders with various opinions and motivations, this study aims to understand the differ-ent aspects of the controversy as it relates to this rent cap bill. By using Contro-versy Mapping by Venturini (2010, 2012), this work focuses on the investigation what stakeholder groups exist, which opinions and motivations they have, and if there is a common ground between them. As result, this study discloses actor-network constellations of Berlin’s rental housing market and untangles stake-holders’ opinions and motivations to enable a conversation.

Abstract:

Housing shortage and its impact on the society has been one of the most discussed topics during the past decade. The aim of this thesis was to explore the possible effects the introduction of market rents could have on rental housing. We observe an existing free market which can be seen as a close substitute to the rental market today, namely the market of tenant owned apartments and estimate the possible market rents based on that. Three Swedish cities have been studied. The results showed that there are possible increases and decreases in rents, variation between and within cities as well as variation between the time periods.

Abstract:

In recent years, along with the soaring housing price level, housing problem in China turned out to be in the spotlight more than ever before. With the high housing price, low and moderate-income families find itvery difficult for them to buy their own dwelling. In order to meet the needs of low and moderate-income families and lessen the overheating, Chinese government carried out some plans, one among which was the Public Rental Housing program. Public Rental Housings mostly serve for low and moderate-income family to live, with a lower rent than market rent on the same condition. And there are other limits or drawbacks such as monitoring and housing register problem. Details of the limits differ from city to city. In this thesis, public renal housing project in Chong Qing, the first city implemented public rental housing to a great extent in China will be studied. Market analysis on both demand side and supply side is carried out to examine the influence on residential market and whether public rental housing can ease the overheating in residential market. A questionnaire is used to study public acknowledgement and satisfaction with public rental housing projects in Beijing (for convenience). The finding is: current public rental housing can ease the market but this policy requires better financing resource, subsidy policy to backup, monitor system and more involvement of society resources.

Ozimek, Adam. "Sticky rents and the CPI for owner-occupied housing." Thesis, Temple University, 2013. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=3595699.

Full text

Abstract:

This dissertation examines the implications of sticky rents on the measurement of owner-occupied housing in the Consumer Price Index (CPI). I argue that marginal and not average rents are the most theoretically justified measurement of owners' equivalent rent (OER), and that the current measurement of rental inflation using average rents is methodologically incorrect. I then discuss the literature on sticky rents and tenure discounts and present a theoretical model showing the implications of sticky rents for aggregate measures of inflation. Then I use two new data sources to construct marginal rent measures to compare to average rent measures. The results show that marginal rents reflect market turning points sooner, and show a larger post-housing bubble decline in rents. In addition, marginal rents are shown to forecast overall inflation better than average rents. Finally, the implications of these results for policy are considered using the Taylor Rule for optimal monetary policy. The results present suggestive evidence that the impacts of switching to marginal rents may be large enough to significantly impact monetary policy and allow the Federal Reserve to be more responsive to both the boom and bust of housing bubbles.

Abstract:

This thesis is a study of the conduct of local authority possession proceedings and the relationships of the parties involved in them: the courts, local authority housing departments and their tenants. On a more general level the thesis is concerned \\ ith the process of change and barriers to change in legal proceedings. The issue underlying these relationships is the nature of the security of tenure given to council tenants by the Housing Act 1980 (consolidated by the Housing Act 1985). On the face of it, discretion as to recovering possession of their properties was removed from local authorities and given to the courts through that legislation. Under the 1985 Act. local authorities are required to show that it is reasonable for a possession order to be made each time they make an application for possession on the ground of rent arrears. Various studies have been carried out about what happens in practice in possession proceedings, both independently and for the Civil Justice Review in 1986, which reported that the courts were more or less "rubber-stamping" local authorities' applications. As a result, the Lord Chancellor's Department instituted some procedural reforms in 1993 which were intended to ensure that courts properly exercise their discretion. This thesis looks at whether the procedural reforms have been effective in changing practice, and having found that they were not, then addresses the question of why that is the case. In seeking to answer the latter point, the author uses Giddens' theory of structuration to analyse the research data. Layder's 'realist' approach to social research is adopted, and provides a framework for discussion of the material by considering it in its micro, macro and historical contexts. The relationships between the agents and the structures pertinent to possession proceedings are analysed, and consideration is gi\en to where power is held and how it is used. By adopting such an approach, it is intended to make a contribution to the social theory oflaw

Abstract:

Following the recession of 2007-2009, conditions in the housing and finance industries favored an increase in renter occupied homes relative to owner occupied homes. With rental properties comprising an increasing share of the housing supply, the home building industry should consider housing products that meet the needs of renters. This thesis proposes a build-to-rent product for single family home builders, to be offered as a complement to the traditional built-for-sale product. The purpose of the research is to demonstrate that a build-to-rent product is financially feasible under ordinary market conditions. In order to determine the viability of a build-to-rent product under likely market conditions, a financial model has been developed for a single family build-to rent product. The research involves reviewing the literature related to similar investment product types in order to develop a business model for the proposed build-to-rent product. The proposed model utilizes financial parameters currently in the industry, respectively, in the analysis of homebuilding projects and rental property investments. Using the analytical methods used for analogous investment classes, the author calculates a projected market range of input variables for the model. Sensitivity analysis of the model was then used to test the financial feasibility of a build-to-rent product. The analysis showed that the proposed product would be feasible under ordinary market conditions. Additional recommendations for future research has been explored based on the findings of this study.

Abstract:

I uppsatsen redogörs för hur olika hyressättningssystem har varierat i Sverige under det senaste seklet. De hyressättningssystem som behandlas är hyresreglering, bruksvärdessystemet samt marknadshyra. En historisk bakgrund inför respektive systems tillblivelse skildras genom sammanställning och bearbetning av rättskällor. På hyresbostadsmarknaden tillämpas idag i huvudsak bruksvärdessystemet som för med sig ett starkt besittningsskydd för dagens hyresgäster. Vidare tolkas och redogörs för ett reformförslag om ett närmande till fri hyressättning. Under januari år 2019 förhandlade de politiska partierna Centerpartiet, Liberalerna, Miljöpartiet och Socialdemokraterna, i en överenskommelse, fram en lista med 73 punkter (Januariavtalet). I denna lista beskrivs under punkt 44, att den aktuella hyresmodellen ska komma att reformeras genom bland annat införande av fri hyressättning vid nybyggnation. Detta reformförslag kommer troligtvis att implementeras på hyresbostadsmarknaden år 2021, en bostadsmarknad som genomgår ständiga förändringar. I Stockholm sker idag omvandling av hyresrätter till bostadsrätter, likaväl har priserna stigit i förorterna som i stadens centrala delar. Utvecklingen har lett till en stor andel höginkomsttagare i de mest attraktiva och centrala områdena och segregationen är tydligare än någonsin. Idag är efterfrågan och behovet av hyresbostäder högre än beståndet och många är drabbade, inte minst unga och utrikesfödda som är begränsade och saknar ekonomisk kraft för att kunna få tag på en hyresrätt. Ytterligare en begränsning är den genomsnittliga kötiden för att få en hyresrätt i innerstan. Under år 2018 låg den genomsnittliga kötiden på 17 år, enligt bostadsförmedlingen i Stockholm. I uppsatsen dras bland annat slutsatsen om att ett verkställande av reformförslaget enligt den aktuella formuleringen med fri hyressättning vid nyproduktion, kommer att leda till två parallellt verkande marknader; en reglerad marknad samt en oreglerad marknad. På sikt kommer dock båda att innebära en viss reglering, men som ändå kommer att ligga på två jämförbara prisklasser. Ena för nyproducerade och attraktiva bostäder riktad till den del av befolkningen med högre inkomst och en annan för ett redan befintligt bestånd med en relativ hög efterfrågan. Likaväl kommer det troligtvis att leda till att respektive system får olika besittningsskydd på marknaden.
A description of how different renting systems have varied in Sweden during the last century, will be presented in the project. The renting systems that are described are rental control, the utility value system and market rent. A historical background for respective system's appearance is presented. Today, the utility value system is used in the Swedish rental housing market. The system provides a strong protected tenancy for today's tenants. Furthermore, a reform proposal on free rental market is presented. In January 2019, a negotiation between the political parties Centerpartiet, Liberalerna, Miljöpartiet and Socialdemokraterna, led to an agreement, a list of 73 points (the January agreement). In this list, under point 44, the current rental system is described to be reformed by imposing free rent on newly built rental apartments. This reform proposal will probably be implemented in the rental housing market in 2021, a housing market that is going through constant changes. Today many rental apartments in Stockholm are converted into cooperative apartments, yet prices have risen in both suburbs and the city's central parts. The development has led to a large proportion of highincome people in the most attractive and central areas of the city and the segregation is clearer than ever. The need and the demand of rental apartment is higher today than the supply can cover and many are affected, not least the younger generation and the foreign-born who are limited and have lack of financial power to be able to obtain a rental apartment. According to the housing agency in Stockholm, the average queue time was 17 years in 2018 for obtaining a rental apartment in the inner city. The conclusion that can be drawn is, among others, that the implementation of the reform proposal according to the current formulation in the January agreement about imposing free rent for newly built rental apartments, will lead to two parallel operating markets; one regulated market and one unregulated market. In the long term, however, both markets will entail some regulation, but they will still be on two comparable price ranges. One for newly produced and attractive apartments aimed for that part of the population with higher income and the second one for an already existing supply with a relatively high demand. The two parallel markets will furthermore probably lead to different strength of protected tenancy.

Abstract:

Cette thèse contient trois essais empiriques sur les marchés du logement et les politiques de logement. Dans le premier essai, nous étudions les effets du contrôle des loyers sur les loyers en utilisant des données historiques de panel sur une période de 78 ans à Lyon. Nous utilisons des régressions multiples avec des effets fixes comme principale forme d’analyse. Nos résultats montrent que l’effet causal du contrôle des loyers sur les loyers à Lyon est significativement négatif. Dans le deuxième essai, j’étudie l’influence de l’âge du chef de famille sur la demande de logements grâce à des données sur les ménages en Chine. Le modèle de prix hédonique en deux étapes, utilisé dans cet essai, me permet d’estimer l’effet de l’âge du chef de famille sur la demande de logements, en contrôlant la qualité du logement et les caractéristiques des autres ménages. Les résultats montrent que la disposition à payer, à qualité constante de la maison, diminue légèrement ou reste constante lorsque le chef de famille vieillit, une fois contrôlé le niveau d’instruction du chef de famille. En revanche, il diminue rapidement si le niveau d’instruction du chef de famille n’est pas contrôlé. Par conséquent, cet essai conclut que la demande totale de logements ne devrait pas diminuer avec le vieillissement de la population, parce que la génération actuelle est plus éduquée que la précédente. Enfin, dans le troisième essai, dans le cadre du modèle de Rosen-Roback, j’analyse l’impact des coûts du logement sur le ratio d’intensité des compétences (SIR), dans différentes villes chinoises. Pour éviter les problèmes d’endogénéité, j’utilise à la fois la part des terrains non disponibles et les prix des logements historiques comme instruments des prix actuels du logement. Les résultats montrent que les prix moyens des logements ont des effets positifs significatifs sur le SIR en 2010 lorsque la mobilité des travailleurs est assouplie, mais que les effets sont non significatifs sur le SIR en 2000 lorsque la mobilité des travailleurs était étroitement réglementée
This thesis contains three empirical essays on housing markets and housing policies. In the first essay, we investigate the effects of rent control on rents using historical panel data in Lyon over a 78-year period. We use multiple regressions with fixed effects as the main form of analysis. Our results show that the causal effect of rent control on rents in Lyon is significantly negative. In the second essay, I study how age influences housing demand based on household level data from China. The two-stage hedonic house price model used in this essay allows me to estimate the pure age effect on housing demand, after housing quality and other household’s characteristics are controlled for. The results demonstrate that the willingness-to-pay for a constant-quality house will decrease slightly or keep constant when a representative household head becomes old, if the household head’s educational attainment is controlled for. In contrast, it will drop rapidly if the household head’s educational attainment is not controlled for. Therefore, this essay concludes that the total housing demand will not decrease with population aging, because the current middle- aged generation get educated more than the current old generation. Finally, in the third essay, in the framework of Rosen-Roback model, I analyze how housing costs affect the ratio of high-skilled to low-skilled workers, explicitly the skill intensity ratio (SIR), across cities in China. To avoid endogeneity issues, I use both share of unavailable land and historical housing prices as instruments of current housing prices. The results show that average housing prices have significant positive effects on the SIR in 2010 when workers’ mobility is relaxed, but insignificant effects on the SIR in 2000 when workers’ mobility was tightly regulated

Full text

Abstract:

This thesis readdresses the notion 'Tong Fang' through the lens of supply- side perspective. As a conceptually 'new' object which has raised widespread concerns since the early 2010s, Tong Fang has only been narrowly examined as the mainstream discussions predominantly confine their very concerns to simply the relationship between the material housing structure and the relevant dwellers. The wider socio-political implications are ignored as the social relations, forces and processes that are indispensable in comprehending the existence of Tong Fang are utterly unaddressed. In particular, the underlying reasons of why such housing structure, represented by its tininess, excessive rental charge and other infer ior environment qualities, could be rampantly produced in Hong Kong is still unsatisfactorily addressed. To explore these overlooked aspects, this study alternatively analyses the production of Tong Fang in Hong Kong and essentially articulates the spatial form to the corresponding processes. Harvey's theory 'Class Monopoly Rent' is employed as the major conceptual tool to analyze the contemporary production of Tong Fang in which the lucrative profitability, resulted from the circumstance which Tong Fang has been constituted as almost the only private affordable dwelling in the housing market structure in recent decades, appears to be the fundamental drive. Through viewing how the potential of CMR has been generated and how it has been appropriated through Tong Fang construction, the necessitated processes and relations are able to be disclosed. Moreover, Harvey's another contribution 'Relational Space' is also invoked to substantiate the exploration of the concrete social processes and relations lying behind Tong Fang as spatial products. All in all, by scrutinizing the production of Tong Fang in Hong Kong, this thesis is expected to enrich our understanding to this contemporary urban blight.

This diploma thesis deals with housing policy and rent housing in Czech republic. First basic terms of housing and consequences of rent housing are described. The second chapter concentrates on the rent housing, in detail particular kinds of this sort of housing are described. The third chapter introduces historical development and reasons of rent restriction in Czech republic. The next part concentrates on the development of law and conception documents in the field of housing policy and current legal form of rent housing. The last part analyses financial availability of housing, it presents the development of restricted rent prices and introduces the prediction model of impacts of rent liberalization applied on the law of unilateral increase of rents. It suggests also possible compensations of these effects.

Abstract:

The Swedish housing market has been subject to extensive attention in the media recently, and the existence of a housing bubble has been questioned. The purpose of this thesis is to analyse the Swedish housing market to investigate if there are reasons to believe that the market is overvalued. The current situation in the housing market will be compared to the United States market prior to the crash of 2007. The models that are used in the paper is the house price-to-income, price-to-rent and imputed rent-to-rent. Other fundamental factors such as rent control, household debt, interest rates, and other policies effecting the housing market will be discussed. The main findings indicate that the Swedish housing market in 2010 is overvalued, however one has to consider that there are limitations to these models such as the extra benefits of owning a house compared to renting.

Abstract:

In recent years, along with the soaring housing price level, housing problem in China turned out to be in the spotlight more than ever before. With the high housing price, low and moderate-income families find it very difficult for them to buy their own dwelling. In order to meet the needs of low and and moderate-income families and lessen the overheating, Chinese goverment carried out some plans, one among which was the Public Rental Housing program. Public Rental Housings mostly serve for low and moderate-income family to live, with a lower rent than market rent on the same condition. And there are other limits or drawbacks sach as monitioring and housing register problem. Details of the limits differ from city to city. In this thesis, Public rental Housing project in Chong Qing, the first city implemented Public rental Housing to a great extent in China will be studied. Market analysis on both demand side and supply side is carried out to examine the influence on residential market and whether Public Rental housing can ease the overheating in residential market. A questionnaire is used to study public acknowledgement and satisfaction with Public Rental Housing projects in Beijing (for convenience). The finding is: Current public Rental Housing can ease the market but this policy requires better financing resource, subsidy policy to back up, monitor system and more involvement of society resources.
