  1. Examination of the potential determinants of demand on the Polish residential housing market in the years 1995-2008 Dariusz Pęchorzewski, Phd Szczecin Renovation Centre Institute of Economic Analyses, Diagnoses and Forecasts

  2. Introduction • Reactions to crisis in globaleconomy: • Increasing uncertainty in the global economy • Desire to take better economic decisions • Search for accuracy and stability • Attempts to find reliable aspects of the economy

  3. Research • Study of the relationship between demand for and prices of real estate, and standing of the economy measured by: • GDP dynamics, • level of unemployment, • main index of Warsaw Stock Exchange – WIG-20, • interest rates.

  4. Research cont. Examination of increasing and decreasing trends in potential determinants of demand during the research period in order to analyze the impact of positive and negative changes on the real estate market.

  5. Research cont. Time delays between variables (determinants) Capture time in which real estate market responds to changes in the determinants

  6. Research cont. • Variables describing development of real estate market: • Realized demand for dwellings - sum of prices received for all transactions registered by the tax office. • Average transaction price of1 square meter during research period in the right-bank part of Szczecin.

  9. Potential determinants of real estate market • Stock exchange index WIG-20 - its formation during the period can be divided into four stages - two increases and two decreases. Phases: - 1st phase - period of growth from 1995 to 1999, - 2nd phase - decrease in the period 2000-2003, - 3rd phase - four-year phase of increases, terminated by the current global financial crisis, - 4th phase - decrease.

  10. Potential determinants of real estate market • Average levels of stock market index - force and direction of relationship with demand and average prices was measured using the Pearson correlation coefficient. - relationship studied both with and without time delays (delays taken into account increased quarterly from 1 quarter to 2 years).

  13. Potential determinants of real estate market • Interest rates - price of money. Six sub-periods were identified in the years 1995-2008.

  16. Potential determinants of real estate market • Rate of unemployment In the years studied, three phases of changes in the unemployment rate in Szczecin were discerned.

  19. Potential determinants of real estate market • Dynamics of gross domestic product During the study period, a total of six phases were specified.

  22. Main findings • The most important factor determining demand for dwellings during the period analyzed was shortage of residential housing. This makes it very difficult to conduct research into regularities in the real estate market. It will not be possible to conduct more reliable measurements until the market is saturated. • Real estate market reacted more quickly to negative than to positive signals during the study period. Negative signals caused quick response in demand and prices. Positive changes needed to consolidate in economy before strong reaction of real estate market occurred.

  23. Summary • Results obtained should not be regarded as stabilized. • Some results may be burdened with a degree of randomness or coincidence. However, grounds for making conclusions about existing or emerging regularities have been discovered.

  24. Summary cont. • Development of Polish real estate market has lasted only 20 years. • Market mechanisms have been disrupted by attempts to adapt quickly to free market mechanisms. • There has been a qualitative change in the research period - Poland's accession to the European Union. • Study period included initial phases of global financial crisis. Therefore, search for regularities is difficult and subjective. • Observed relationships were strong and statistically significant. There is hope that it will be possible in the future to accurately predict changes in the real estate market.
