Panel Paper:
Ease-of-Eviction Policies and Rental Volumes in OECD Countries
*Names in bold indicate Presenter
This paper explores the outcomes in rental markets in the metropolitan areas of several countries with different configurations of eviction policies. Using both aggregate country-level data and household survey data from OECD and OECD-accession countries, it is explored whether there is an association between eviction policies and rental volumes. This is achieved using a two pronged approach that combines first an empirical estimation strategy which measures the proportion of families renting their units, when accounting for both an ease-of-eviction index and household characteristics. Then, two case studies for Costa Rica and Chile are used to explore specific Latin American country-level intricacies.
