description Over the last 30 years, there have been large differences in the cyclical behavior of owner occupied housing markets in the U.K. and Germany. This paper interprets econometric models of house prices in the U.K. and Germany to throw light on housing market fluctuations.

This paper concludes by considering the agenda for further reforms in housing institutions and policy in the U.K.
