Homeownership and the Labour Market in Europe
Author: Casper van EwijkPublisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0199543941
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 266
Book Description
Increasing labour market flexibility is at the top of the European agenda. A new and challenging view is that lack of mobility in the labour market may arise from rigidities in the housing market. This book brings together top European economists to analyse the interaction between housing and labour markets and provides clear policy messages.

Book Description
This paper studies housing tenure and labour mobility using individual data from the ECHP for five European countries. First, the effect of housing tenure on the unemployed workers' labour mobility is studied using a discrete unemployment duration model with two alternative exits to employment, depending on whether they are associated with a residential change or not. Ownership is found to affect geographical mobility negatively. Second, the results are robust to potential endogeneity of the ownership status and institutional differences across countries. Third, post-unemployment wages are studied. We do not find any effects of the unemployment spell duration and the geographical mobility on wages after controlling for the self-selection bias.

Book Description
In this article, we test whether tenure choice influences employment. This influence might arise through a number of channels, including transaction costs, lock-in effects, wealth effects, externalities and commuting times. These factors could collectively have either a positive or negative effect on employment outcomes. Using Current Population Survey panel data from 1988 to 2013, we conclude that tenure rates do not statistically influence employment growth rates. Using Panel Study of Income Dynamics data from 1994 to 2011 and Survey of Income and Program Participation data from 1995 to 2013, we conclude that home-owning does not increase peoples' unemployment probabilities or significantly increase people's unemployment spells or decrease people's wages. But home-owning does affect employment by lengthening employment durations and increasing the likelihood of interstate moves. By investigating some features of home-owing - presence of mortgages, negative equity, wealth accumulation and attachment to communities - we conclude that having mortgages, negative equity and wealth accumulation might affect job outcomes, largely in a positive direction.
The Puzzle of Job Search and Housing Tenure

Book Description
Oswald's thesis posits that homeowners should have longer unemployment spells than renters due to restricted mobility, but repeatedly the reverse is found. I contribute to solve this puzzle analyzing both job search intensity and unemployment duration. First, I show that homeowner's mobility constraints have a negative impact on search. Theoretically, it is shown in a search model with moving costs. Using U.K. Labour Force Survey (LFS) data, it is confirmed when considering outright owners, while leveraged owners have the highest search. Second, I find evidence that homeowners select search methods associated with shorter unemployment spells, suggesting that they search more efficiently.
