Abstract

Real estate markets operate within a framework set by government and to some extent by supra-national ones working in concert. Government regulations therefore can be seen as a series of tiers of control by local city governments through to international treaties. In each case, the rules they set have ramifications for the operation of real estate markets. This chapter looks at these layers of intervention and also the influence of the removal of regulation. It examines the potential impact of land use planning, noting variations between countries and even between regions/states of a country. Climate change is inevitably focusing the minds of governments around the world and the chapter chronicles the various government approaches to this issue and the real estate market’s response. The chapter also reviews the role of government regulation in the housing and commercial real estate markets. The consequences of the removal of regulation are then considered using examples. Finally, the chapter assesses the role of international banking regulations to control lending to real estate via a series of Basel Accords and how they were tightened as a response to the banking crisis following the GFC.
