Resumen
En este trabajo se describen los principales rasgos de la evolución del mercado de la vivienda en España durante el último período de expansión (2014-2019) y se discuten dos aspectos relacionados con su situación reciente. Por una parte, se analiza la evidencia acerca de las posibles dificultades de acceso de los hogares a la vivienda, encontrando que estas se habrían agravado durante los últimos años, especialmente para determinados colectivos, como los jóvenes y las familias con rentas bajas, sobre todo en algunas zonas, como las grandes áreas metropolitanas. Seguidamente se revisan las implicaciones que de ello se derivan desde el punto de vista de la eficiencia económica y de los retos sociales y se analizan medidas públicas que podrían considerarse para aliviar estas dificultades. La última sección ofrece una valoración de los posibles riesgos sistémicos asociados al mercado inmobiliario residencial, y se concluye que estos eran, a finales de 2019, más limitados que los que había en los años anteriores a la crisis financiera iniciada en 2008.
This paper describes the main features of the Spanish housing market during the latest expansionary period (2014-2019), and discusses two aspects relating to its recent situation. First, it analyses the evidence of households’ possible housing affordability difficulties. It finds that these difficulties have been exacerbated in recent years, especially for specific groups such as the young and low-income households, and particularly in certain zones, such as the major metropolitan areas. Next, it reviews the ensuing consequences from the standpoint of economic efficiency and of social challenges, analysing potential public measures that might be considered to alleviate these difficulties. Finally, it assesses the potential systemic risks associated with the residential real estate market, concluding that these were, at end-2019, more limited than those prevalent in the run-up to the financial crisis that broke in 2008.
