Abstract

In recent times housing associations have been encouraged to sell part of their housing stock for various reasons. This thesis tries to find insights into how the sale of social housing homes by housing associations in the province of Groningen has impacted different aspects of the housing in the period 2009-2018. This is done by analyzing Kadaster datasets with a statistical model. The model is based around comparing prices paid for housing in with different variables such as if the sale was made by a housing association, is the buyer a starter or the location of the sale. Results indicate that the sale of social housing has an influence on the housing market of Groningen as these sales provide a steady supply of low-cost houses to the market each year. The impacts of these sales on starters are noticeable and the highest impact of the sale of social housing is in the municipality of Groningen. However indications of a potential shift in the impact are also visible throughout the years.
