Abstract

One of the most fundamental sectors in economic and social development planning is housing. One of the most important challenges facing the housing market is the existence of speculation in this market, which leads to a market bubble and, as a result, imposes high costs on society. The main objective of this research is to investigate the housing rental bubble and its influencing factors in Iran during the period 1990-2024. Therefore, first, using the Kalman filter, the rent bubble is calculated, and then the factors affecting it are analyzed using the ARDL approach. Findings from the estimation of the housing rent bubble showed that a significant portion of the housing rent changes in this period were not only due to changes in fundamental variables but also due to the formation of a price bubble, so that since 2019, due to increasing inflation, decreasing people's purchasing power, and increasing rents, the amount of the housing rent bubble has increased. The results of the ARDL approach also showed that in the long run, real liquidity and the unofficial exchange rate have a positive and significant relationship with the housing rental bubble. In addition, the results indicate that GDP per capita, unemployment rate, and bank interest rate have a negative relationship with housing rent bubbles in the long run. This study emphasizes the government's influence on the housing market through monetary policy with liquidity and interest rate instruments. Therefore, authorities should pay attention to the effects of monetary policy on the housing market.
