Abstract

This thesis explores the impact of the economic crisis on different sectors of the Dutch residential real estate development market. The Dutch real estate market was categorized on the basis of ownership purpose, developer, pricing, housing type and locality. It was found that commercial developers cut back on their investments more than housing societies. Commercial developers focus their activities mainly on the private ownership sector. Within this sector, the highest price category experienced the harshest decline in new housing developments. No relation was found between housing type and the impact of the crisis, even though this was expected on the basis of the findings in the pricing category. Housing developments declined most in the weaker socio-economic areas of the Netherlands, most notably the North. These results have led to the conclusion that some segments of the Dutch residential real estate development market are more resilient to economic changes than others.
