Private Renting in the Advanced Economies cover

The private rental housing market plays an important and growing role in the advanced economies. Providing accommodation for a wider range of households than before the global financial crisis, rental housing is also a key asset class for private individuals and companies, while the rise of Airbnb lettings has pushed up rents and reduced the number of homes available to residents.

This edited collection by leading experts in the field analyses recent changes in the private rental market, using case studies from the UK, Europe, Australia and the USA, and assesses the initial impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.

“The book is a welcome addition to existing literature. It is a useful handbook for (comparative) housing scholars, and an important read for researchers, policy makers and practitioners across the nine countries under study, and beyond.” International Journal of Housing Policy
