Students’ Preferences On The Residential Real Estate Market In Polish Cities

Abstract

The understanding of price-setting attributes operating on local real estate market is not only an essential element of property appraisers’ work, it can also greatly assist the professional activities of real estate agents. However, its primary importance is for the market – facilitating the decision-making processes of developers (developers become aware of the buyers’ expectations and preferences, making it possible to more accurately form market offers and pricing strategy). With the use of computer-assisted interviewing, a questionnaire was designed to find out students’ preferences in the housing market of large Polish cities. The research was undertaken at six universities: Nicolaus Copernicus University in Torun, Poznan University of Economics, Wroclaw Medical University, Wroclaw University of Environmental and Life Sciences, University of Technology and Life Sciences in Bydgoszcz, and President Stanislaw Wojciechowski Higher Vocational State School in Kalisz. At each university, the survey was carried out on two groups of students: one included those who had chosen specializations related to the real estate market, the other one – students who did not explore the subject of the real estate market in their field of studies. The research can make a significant contribution to the problems of real estate market analysis. The results are the first part of a broader concept of research, which ultimately aims to internationalize the findings.

The Measurement of Housing Preferences in the Analytic Hierarchy Process

“…In recent years, a number of studies of the housing preferences of young people (Urbańska, 2011;Strączkowski, Suszyńska, 2012) and students (Skotarczyk, Nowak, 2010;Kempa et al, 2015) have been conducted. The previous research findings enabled to build a proper research tool.…”

The residental of students' dreams - results of a survey

“…Grupę potencjalnych klientów tworzą studenci, którzy w perspektywie kilku lat będą aktywnymi uczestnikami (kupującymi, inwestorami, najemcami) rynku nieruchomości mieszkaniowych. Jako ważna grupa graczy rynku nieruchomości studenci byli podmiotem licznych badań (Skotarczak, Nowak, 2010;Urbańska, 2013;Kempa, Krajewska, Palicki, Rącka, Wójta-Kempa, 2015). Artykuł wpisuje się w nurt badań zapatrywań studentów i ich oczekiwań co do nieruchomości mieszkaniowych.…”

Perception of market characteristics by appraisers, realtors and property buyers

“…Idea metody badania preferencji potencjalnych nabywców może być realizowana na różne sposoby, o czym świadczą propozycje zgłaszane w tym względzie w literaturze przedmiotu (Kowalczyk, Kulwikowska-Popiołek, 2007;Pawlicki, 2004;Pawlukowicz, Bartłomowicz, 2005;Krajewska, Gaca, 2007;Foryś, Kokot, 2008a, 2008bOlejnik, 2013;Kempa, Krajewska, Palicki, Rącka, Wójta-Kempa, 2015). Warto też dodać, że metody takie są stosowane między innymi w Stanach Zjednoczonych (Allen, Austin, 2001).…”
