Zusammenfassung:During recent decades, home ownership sectors in most European countries have grown in size (see Table 1.1). Even by the mid 1990s, taken over the preenlarged EU (EU15) as a whole approximately two-thirds of households were home owners (Doling, 1997). In those countries that were formerly under communist rule (some now part of the enlarged EU) as their land and housing sectors have recently been opened up to market forces, home ownership has also generally been expanding (Lowe & Tsenkova, 2003). Although there is considerable variation across Europe, with national rates ranging from about 40 per cent to about 90 per cent, the majority of European Union households now own their own homes. So, whatever assets European households have acquired in recent decades, real estate appears to form a significant element in wealth portfolios.
