Abstract

Housing reform in China is moving towards privatization or marketization of public housing. To be successful, the reform requires that policy makers allow housing rent differentials to arise and permit reform in wages parallel to reform in rent. This paper analyses the effects of occupational ranks and housing attributes on urban housing rents in Beijing and Shenyang, China. Our work focuses on the magnitude of rent discounts available to different occupational ranks.
