Abstract
Rental housing has been affected by housing prices in different periods and the growth of housing prices has reduced the purchasing power of housing applicants and increased the percentage of rented households. Therefore, any recession and boom in the housing sector has a direct impact on the housing rental market, and planning to control the rental market will not be achieved without considering the housing market. In this regard, the purpose of this study is to investigate the factors affecting housing rent based on two groups included large, small and medium cities in Iran using the Generalized moment method (GMM) in the period (2008-2018). The results show that housing rental prices in the previous period, housing prices, land leverage and real per capita income of urban households had the most positive impact on housing rents in both large and small and medium cities. Also, the impact of housing prices and rental prices in the previous period has been greater in large cities. Also, Housing bank facilities, the number of urban marriages and the real interest rate were other variables affecting the rental price of housing in urban areas.
