Introduction (1)
Housing costs of households are diverse. Especially the housing costs of
single households are often high.
In the future the housing costs will increase and the ‘housing costs to
income ratio’ will increase even further.

Single households and housing costs
Introduction (2)
1)Taxes for housing associations are rising, forcing them to increase rents.- extra points in Housing Appreciation System (WWS) for districts with shortages- an extra rent increase (inflation+1,5%) for households with an income less than €33.614/year- an extra rent increase (inflation+2,0%) for households with an income €33.614-43.000/year- an extra rent increase (inflation+4,0%) for incomes >€43.000/year
2) Other housing related costs, like energy costs, are increasing
Affordability is at issue!

Single households and housing costs
Introduction (4)
This presentation is mainly based on two surveys and literature study:• A survey among tenants and owners about their housing costs in the
region of Eindhoven providing insight in the affordability of housing. [Leussink & Smeets, 2012]
• A three-yearly housing survey among inhabitants of South East Brabant. [SRE, 2011]

The housing costs of households are not only determined by rent or mortgage but also by dwelling-related costs.

Single households and housing costs
Are housing costs of singles high….
…as a consequence of the overconsumption of dwelling services
or
…as a consequence of the constraints on the housing market
?

Single households and housing costs
Overconsumption of dwelling services?
Assumption I:
A lot of single person households are living in single family
dwellings.
Social rental sector
Owner occupied sector
![Page 18: Single households and housing costs Free choice or market constraints M. Leussink J. Smeets.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070412/56649ec95503460f94bd6566/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Single households and housing costs
Overconsumption of dwelling services?
Assumption I:
A lot of single person households are living in single family
dwellings. TRUE
Assumption II:
Housing costs of single person households in single family
dwellings are higher than the housing costs of single person
households in multi family dwellings.
![Page 19: Single households and housing costs Free choice or market constraints M. Leussink J. Smeets.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070412/56649ec95503460f94bd6566/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Single households and housing costs
Overconsumption of dwelling services?
• Housing costs of single person households in social rental sector are similar for different dwelling types.
• Housing costs of single person households in owner occupied sector are less for single family dwellings and similar for multi family dwellings with and without an elevator.
• The costs in the owner occupied sector
are – for all types of dwellings - higher
than in the social rental sector.
![Page 20: Single households and housing costs Free choice or market constraints M. Leussink J. Smeets.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070412/56649ec95503460f94bd6566/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Single households and housing costs
Overconsumption of dwelling services?
• Housing costs to income ratio varies in social rental sector from 36% to 40%. Housing costs to income ratio varies in owner occupied sector from 30% to 39%.
• Housing costs to income ratio is relatively high, both in social rental as in owner occupied sector.
• Single person households in an owner
occupied single family dwelling have
the lowest ratio (probably they got a
mortgage because of their relatively high
income).

Possible solution 5:
Social owner occupied dwellings
Buying a dwelling under conditions. For example: getting a discount on the market value of a dwelling with an
obligation/possibility to sell back to original seller.

Single households and housing costs
Possible solution 6:
House sharing
A model of household in which a group of usually unrelated people reside together; housemates, flatmates
Share housing often occurs in the 18-35 age group – during a life stage between leaving home and having children

Possible solution 7:
Co-housing
Private dwellings with common facilities like a kitchen, dining room, laundry, child care facilities, offices, internet access, guest rooms and recreational features
Research among starters: These households are only willing to share a laundry. (as long as it isn’t necessary)
