The diploma thesis describes the current situation on the rental housing market in selected city parts of the Statutory City of Brno and describes and evaluates the basic factors that influence the rental price. Part of the thesis is a market research in four different locations in Brno, namely Žabovřesky, Bystrc, Líšeň and Bohunice. Market research is conducted for different layouts of apartments, namely 1+1 and 1+kk, 2+1 and 2+kk, 3+1 and 3+kk. All collected data are compared and described in text and graphics. In order to compare the rental market with foreign countries, the thesis also includes a market survey in Bratislava, specifically in the district of Petržalka.

This diploma thesis describes elementary factors affecting real estate rental market. The thesis includes a market research in two different localities in the city of Brno. The result of the research determines a usual rent amount. The collected data is separated by the number of rooms 1+1/kk, 2+1/kk a 3+1/kk and bigger (number of room + the kitchen or a kitchenette) and plot into a map. The usual rent amount defines three levels on each of the groups. The conclusion of the thesis evaluates the research results.

This diploma thesis describes the actual market of rental housing in a selected location of Brno. In the begining of the work describes the general view on the rental housing, then it compares the amount of usual rent in particular categories and catastral areas. Next it evaluates which factors have an impact on the amount of rent. The research of the market was made in four categories according to the floor space and disposition. In the conclusion all of the details are compared and described both text and graphic.

This diploma thesis describes and compares the actual situation on the rental housing market in selected locations in Brno and Bratislava. The introductory chapters present the theoretical information in the field of rental housing, the historical background of housing policies and the description of the selected locations. The following part contains market research data for each category according to the floor area and disposition. Finally, the gathered information is compared and the influence of factors on the amount of rent is evaluated.

Studiens syfte är att utreda och jämföra olika hyressättningsmodeller i olika delar av Sverige med fokus på Göteborg, Umeå och Malmö. Dessutom kommer hyrornas uppbyggnad från två kommunala bostadsbolag att uppvisas för att se hur hyrorna påverkas av olika boendekvalitetsvariabler. En jämförelse med bostadsrättsmarknaden kommer också att utföras för att se skillnaderna på hur priset på lägenheter är uppbyggt jämfört med hur hyrorna är uppbyggda. Majoriteten av alla hyror bestäms genom årliga förhandlingar mellan fastighetsägarna och hyresgästföreningen där hyrorna baseras på lägenhetens läge, standard och driftkostnader. Vid de årliga hyresförhandlingarna justeras hyrorna för att de ska spegla hyresgästernas värderingar och åsikter bättre [1]. I den här studien används hedoniska regressioner för att analysera data från två kommunala bostadsbolag i Malmö och Göteborg. Resultaten visar på att lägenheternas hyror till största del är uppbyggd av dess storlek, läge, köksstandard samt byggår. Resultaten visar att läget till viss del är felvärderat för båda företagen samt att läget generellt har en liten påverkan på hyresnivåern / The purpose of the study is to investigate and compare different rental models in different cities in Sweden, focusing on Gothenburg, Umeå and Malmö. In addition to this the composition of two rental models of two municipal housing companies will be shown to see how different accommodation quality variables affect the rental levels. A comparison with the co-operative apartments market will also be conducted to compare the differences in which variables the price consists of compared to the rental levels. The majority of all rents in tenancies are determined by the annual negotiations between the property owners and the tenant organization where the rents are based on the location of the apartment, the standard and its operating costs. In the annual rental negotiations the rent is adjusted to better reflect the tenant’s values In this study I’ve used hedonic regressions to analyze data from two municipal housing companies in Malmö and Gothenburg. The results shows that the rental levels of the apartments mainly are based on its size, location, kitchen standard and year of construction. The results show that the location variables in some cases are wrongly valuated for both companies and that the location variable has a small impact on the rental levels.

This study utilises Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) to examine media discourses on rent increases in the Swedish rental housing market and their reflection of crises within neoliberal regimes. Proceeding from newspaper articles from Dagens Nyheter, the largest newspaper in Sweden, two separate time periods are analysed, with one functioning as a control group. The analysis implements three levels of CDA: text, discursive practice, and social practice.The findings illuminate the complex nature of rent increases, with different perspectives from tenants, landlords, and policymakers. Power imbalances are evident, providing certain actors with more legitimacy and influence. The analysis confirms the influence of neoliberal forces in the Swedish rental market, reflected in language, values, and individual representation. Three of philosopher Michael Brie's identified crises— overaccumulation, integration, and representative democracy—are evident in the discourses on rent increases, with varying positions over time. The crisis of overaccumulation is more evident in the second period, potentially influenced by global economic conditions, while the crises of integration and democracy are consistent in their evidence. This analysis shines light on the interaction between discourses, ideology, and power dynamics, providing insights into the challenges posed by the process of neoliberalization.

State of Objectives: This paper addresses the question of how the presumption-rent system has developed during ten years of its introduction to the rental market, with a particular emphasis on the investors’ perspective. The study has three focus areas, firstly an emphasis on how the real estate investors within the private and public sectors reacted to the introduction of the presumption-rents. Secondly, it examines whether the trends have changed during the course of these ten years. Finally, it observes how the presumption-rent system, as a rent-setting method for new residential rental constructions, is perceived and evaluated by the investors. Methodology: The empirical study focuses on the rent market in Stockholm, and it is articulated through a holistic multiple case-study of six public-and private real estate companies with rental dwellings in Stockholm. In order to examine the developments of the presumption-rent structures in these companies, a numerical analysis of the rent structures through a quasi-experimental design is as well conducted. Empirical Findings: The results in general prove that the rent-setting within the presumption rent system is unpredictable and subjective, because it is influenced by conflicting interests and different perceptions. The implication of this for the application of the presumption-rents is that it is depended on a complex, ambiguous and vague negotiation structure, rather than being based on a systematized rent-setting procedure. Furthermore, it is noted that the collective bargaining system, which sets the standards for the rent negotiations, is undergoing a slow process of change, as the law amendment in 2011 has caused paradigm-shits within the rental market. One dimension of this is that the rent-negotiations noticeably do not influence the investment decisions anymore, but the rent negotiations certainly have an impact on the rent-setting method. The implication for the application of the presumption-rentsystem, including its negotiation framework, is that it is applied when it meets the criteria for the investment decision, otherwise it is ignored. Finally, it is showed that nor the public neither the private companies perceive the presumption-system as a long-term and sustainable solution to the prevailing challenges with the Swedish rent-setting system. What is clear is that the system is mainly considered as a temporality solution to a course of disorders that have emerged from prolonged institutional negligence and error that have impaired the rental markets.

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.

No. of bitstreams: 1 arquivototal.pdf: 7542345 bytes, checksum: 33e9e060025e8b9c075043b7218a5033 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2015-10-23 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / The deterioration and depreciation process on urban centers, especially in the oldest areas of Brazilian cities, has as a main phenomenon resulting from the multiplication of villages, hives, among other means of collective houses. The relative “invisibility” of precarious collective rental houses (HCPAs) in central areas, with special focus on/specially for the city of João Pessoa, leads to conclusions, sometimes rushed ones, in order to asserting of non-vitality, abandon or even the death of “historical centers”. This job points in another direction when highlights the existence of a high number of collective rental houses in the neighborhood of Varadouro. The objective is to evaluate the relations between living conditions and informality of such ways of housing, through their identification, mapping and characterization (achieved through survey forms and photographic records), as well as semi structured interviews with lessors, lessees, and representatives from PMJP (City Hall of João Pessoa). The hypothesis was investigated that the condition of invisibility of collective rental houses facilitates the establishment of precarious living conditions, which strengthens the condition of informality and consequently the performance of the informal housing rental market, consolidating a vicious circle where such issues are conditional and feed. It was observed that the inserted HCPAs in the neighborhood of Varadouro have poor living conditions on the scale of the housing unit as opposed to urban livability; despite the poor collective rental housing do not offer proven, appropriate living conditions for their tenants, they prefer to safeguard the ease of access, transport means and the proximity of the work, namely, the coordination and integration with its surroundings, the having to live in households located in the outskirts of the city, away from their activities and destinations. The work also showed that the informal housing rental market in Varadouro is fraught with uncertainties and conventions based and balanced from interpersonal relationships of trust-loyalty. Finally, it was found that the relationship between habitability and the informal rental market of HCPAs in Varadouro happens clearly in the way it gives (or not) the maintenance of precarious tenements rentals. Due to the relationship of trust-loyalty and dominance between lessors and lessees, adjustments and improvements of buildings usually are not hired; the habitability of housing units is submissive to these relations, when agreements and disagreements lead to precarity of HCPAs. / O processo de deterioração e desvalorização dos centros urbanos, em especial nas áreas mais antigas das cidades brasileiras, tem como um dos principais fenômenos resultantes a multiplicação de vilas, cortiços, dentre outras formas de moradias coletivas. A relativa "invisibilidade" das habitações coletivas precárias de aluguel (HCPAs) nas áreas centrais, com destaque para a cidade de João Pessoa, leva a conclusões por vezes apressadas no sentido de afirmarem a não-vitalidade, o abandono ou até mesmo a morte dos "centros históricos". Este trabalho aponta em outra direção ao destacar a existência de grande número de habitações coletivas de aluguel no bairro do Varadouro. Objetiva-se avaliar as relações entre as condições de habitabilidade e a informalidade de tais formas de moradia, através de sua identificação, mapeamento e caracterização (realizados através de fichas de levantamento e registros fotográficos), bem como de entrevistas semiestruturadas com locadores, locatários e representantes da PMJP (Prefeitura Municipal de João Pessoa). Investigou-se a hipótese de que a condição de invisibilidade das habitações coletivas de aluguel facilita o estabelecimento de precárias condições de habitabilidade, o que fortalece a condição de informalidade e, consequentemente, a atuação do mercado imobiliário informal de aluguel, se consolidando um círculo vicioso, em que tais questões se condicionam e se alimentam. Observou-se que as HCPAs inseridas no bairro Varadouro apresentam péssimas condições de habitabilidade na escala da unidade habitacional em oposição à habitabilidade urbana; apesar das habitações coletivas precárias de aluguel não oferecerem, comprovadamente, condições habitacionais adequadas para seus inquilinos, estes preferem salvaguardar a facilidade de acessos, de meios de transporte e a proximidade do trabalho, isto é, a articulação e integração com o seu entorno, a ter que residir em domicílios situados nas periferias da cidade, afastados de suas atividades e destinos. O trabalho mostrou ainda que o mercado imobiliário informal de aluguel no Varadouro é permeado de incertezas e convenções, baseado e equilibrado a partir de relações interpessoais de confiança-lealdade. Finalmente, identificou-se que a relação entre a habitabilidade e o mercado informal de locação das HCPAs do Varadouro acontece nitidamente no modo como se dá (ou não) a manutenção das habitações coletivas precárias de aluguel. Devido à relação de confiança-lealdade e de dominância entre locadores e locatários, os ajustes e melhorias das edificações comumente não são efetivados; a habitabilidade das unidades habitacionais fica submissa a essas relações, cujos acordos e desacordos conduzem à precariedade das HCPAs.

The diploma thesis describes the current situation on the market in the market rent in Břeclav. Thesis focuses on the factors that affect the amount of rent and how are prices influenced by these factors. The market survey was conducted on the basis of data from realized rents ascertained from the questionnaires, supplemented by the bid prices of real estate. The gathered data are divided into 1+1 and 1+kk, 2+1 and 2+kk, 3+1 and 3+kk, 4+1 and 4+kk. Based on the data are created maps which shown amount of rent.
