The economic crisis has been most reflected in the evolution of the real estate markets, which crashed at the end of 2008. The passing years have been marked by bankruptcy of many real estate developers, but also high decreases in prices. The survivors were those which manage to make the real estate sector more attractive, through innovative steps. This set of papers present useful elements from the real estate market, on the evolution of the market both at the European Union level, but also for Romania, with economic and legal aspects on green buildings, accounting and fiscal regulations impact on properties, establishing the rent and valuation of real estate properties, but also requirements of companies for the educational sector on the competencies of graduates on real estate markets. Moreover, there are presented and analyzed a series of aspects of restructuring of companies in Romania, but also legal changes on evaluating the needed information for assessing the financial position and return. The papers are useful both for students from the master programs and for specialists from entities that interact with the real estate market: valuers, investors, fiscal inspectors, credit officers. Assistant Professor Adrian ANICA-POPA, PhD Theoretical and Applied Economics Volume XXII (2015), Special Issue, pp. 5-14 An analysis of the evolutions of real estate market and purchasing power within the European Union Ciprian ȘIPOȘ West University of Timisoara, Romania [email protected] Alexandru BUGLEA West University of Timisoara, Romania [email protected] Abstract. The paper analyzes the influence of the purchasing power on the evolution of the real estate market in the EU countries, based on the developments of GDP per capita, purchasing power parities, House Price Index and production in construction in period 2008-2013 in the EU countries. The research reveals that the evolution of GDP per capita significantly influences the evolution of House Price Index, and the price index at his turn influences the evolution of production in construction. Finally, is made a grouping of EU countries into four categories and are discussed the prospects of Real Estate market developments in the EU countries. Keywords: Real Estate Market, purchasing power, House Price Index, production in construction. JEL Classification: R31, R32. 6 Ciprian Şipoş, Alexandru Buglea 1. Introduction Profitable investments can be made at any time, both in times of crisis and the real estate peak periods, as they were in periods of 2006 - 2007. An old investor market, experienced, knows that property price increases inevitable, just a matter of time. Those who lose get to this point because of unwise decisions. In the long term, prices of real estate have always increased. In the long term, real estate has proven to be one of the most stable in terms of investment. But it's true that sometimes you better invest in a property or another, which makes the difference in profit. Loss is defined as someone investing in a property in peak period and wishes or is forced by circumstances to make an exit in a time when prices were low (Case and Wachter, 2005: pp. 197-211). The financial crisis was a real awakening to the understanding that we still live with cyclical capitalist crises. Simultaneously, it has given the opportunity to examine the role of nation-states in relation to real estate markets at level of cities, regions, national and international relations (Sipos, 2012: pp. 20-33). This theme reflects upon the reality of political and institutional power at a time of financial crises like this one and examines contemporary urban theories that have long left out capitalist crises and minimized the role of national economies in the framework of globalization (Fujita, 2011: pp. 265-271). Liquidity in real estate markets is variable over time. Therefore, indices of changes in market value that are based on asset transaction prices will systematically reflect inter-temporal differences in the ease of selling a property (Fisher et al., 2003: pp. 269-303). The indicator used at European level to track the developments in housing prices is called the House Price Index (HPI). He summarizes, based on a methodology of Eurostat, the evolution of acquired property prices, both new and existing ones, regardless of the destination and the previous owners (Eurostat, 2014). The European HPI is calculated based on all HPI nationwide using an aggregation based on weighted average GDP of the countries concerned to values expressed in purchasing power parity standard. Besides this important indicator, real estate market can be illustrated by another indicator named production in construction which can include the total of the construction sector or only building construction and civil engineering. Based on these indicators, further is made an analysis of the influence of the purchasing power of the citizens of EU countries on the evolution of the real estate market prices. This analysis consider the evolutions of GDP per capita, purchasing power parities, House Price Index and production in construction in the period 2008 - 2013 in the EU countries. An analysis of the evolutions of real estate market and purchasing power within the European Union 7 2. The interdependences between purchasing power, House Price Index and Production in construction within the EU The analysis of interdependences between purchasing power, House Price Index (HPI) and production in construction in the EU countries is structured on three research hypotheses: . Hypothesis 1: purchasing power, quantified both by GDP per capita and by purchasing power parities, significantly influences the House Price Index; . Hypothesis 2: purchasing power significantly influences the production in construction; . Hypothesis 3: the House Price Index significantly
