Originální abstrakt

The lack of housing availability and the growth of real estate prices are a global problem. The severity and relevance of this problem is evidenced from the fact that not only individual states but also the EU or OECD are addressing this problem. They are looking for measures how to make the housing more affordable and how to avoid further growth of real estate prices. The rate of growth of real estate prices in the Czech Republic is one of the fastest ones withing the EU. This article´s aim is to identify the hypothetical "winners" operating in the real estate marekt in the area of construction by considering the criteria of productivity and profitability of companies. The results achieved clearly demonstrate that it is the developer companies that reach profits several times higher than companies engaged in the construction itself. The analyses performed also indicate that the above-strandard advantages are connected, in particular, with the ownership of production factors: land and capital. It should be noted that as a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic, a deterioration in the real estate market can be expected due to further expected growth of prices. The foregoing is likely to lead to a change in the perception of existing standards (strengthening of rental housing) and probably to a high level in this area of cooperative construction, too.
