This essay primarily focuses on the rental housing market in Sweden. The problem addressed is the housing shortage and the underlying factors contributing to the housing shortage we are facing. We consider research on this issue to be necessary for society. The essay takes into account the regulations and systems on which the market is built. We attempt to address the general issues in Sweden's rental housing market to answer our research question. We use Norway, Denmark, and Finland as reference points to understand how housing policies can be structured differently. This provides us with a good understanding of multiple systems and helps us reach a rational conclusion. The study employs a deductive approach with qualitative interviews to gain a thorough understanding of the subject, furthermore, building on interviews with knowledgeable respondents.The main aspects we focus on are the utility value system and land and planning processes. We consider these as central components of an inefficient system and part of the explanation for the housing shortage.
