Abstract

This study establishes a dynamic search-matching model with the home ownership market and rental markets unified within a single framework, against the background of China's home-purchase limit policy. We analyze the dynamic responses of household tenure choice, housing prices and market liquidity to a demographic shock. Our results show that, although the home-purchase limit policy can inhibit housing prices in the current period, the positive shock from demographic changes immediately triggers growth in rents and eventually leads to escalation in housing prices in subsequent periods.
