INTRODUCTION
19/04/23 ERES 2014 - Bruneau C. and Cherfouh S. 2
Motivation for the research
• Despite its leading position in Europe, limited research on the Greater Paris rental office market
• Analysis of the Parisian market dynamics (focus on the rental and demand equations)
• Extend the existing office market research to the French case to the really recent past
• Combine cointegration techniques to a multiple structural break approach

MODELING STRATEGY
19/04/23 ERES 2014 - Bruneau C. and Cherfouh S. 4
Literature and methodology
• Theoretical background multi-equation framework
[Rosen, 1984]; [Wheaton, 1987];
[Wheaton et al. 1997]; [Malle 2010] etc
• Objective: provide a full comprehension of the main underpinning market dynamics
• 3 behavioural equations: Demand:(economic activity and rents) Supply:(economic activity, vacancy rate, construction
costs, interest rates) Rents:(vacancy rates)
19/04/23 ERES 2014 - Bruneau C. and Cherfouh S. 5
• Econometric methodology cointegration approach
[Hendershott et al. 2002]; [Brounen and Jennen, 2009]; [McCartney, 2012]; [Hendershott et al., 2013] etc
Reduced-form equations
• Justification: most economic, financial and real estate series are non stationary
• Objective: provide a relevant framework able to account for specific characteristics of space markets well-known slow adjustment
19/04/23 ERES 2014 - Bruneau C. and Cherfouh S. 6
Literature and methodology
• Econometric methodology multiple structural break approach
[Perron, 1989]; [Banerjee and Urga,1995]; [Gregory and Watt, 1996]; [Gregory and Hansen, 1996]
• Justification: no cointegration found between the variables of interest
• Objective: account for the structural changes that may affect the long run equilibria through shifts in the mean
Nonlinear approach in the space market literature [Englund et al. 2008]; [Brounen and Jennen, 2009]; [Hendershott et al., 2010]; etc

THE GREATER PARIS OFFICE MARKET
19/04/23 ERES 2014 - Bruneau C. and Cherfouh S. 10
• Largest office market in Europe in terms of stock (53 m sm) and in terms of turnovers (over 2 m sm take-up/annum since 2000)
• Second largest market in terms of investment after London (€ 9.6 b/annum since 2000 vs 11.8 for London)
• Major market with specific characteristics compared to the London market:
Higher level of office space centralization in France Economic growth prospects strongly reliant on a relatively
stable private and public demand Shorter terms of rental agreements

EMPIRICAL RESULTS
19/04/23 ERES 2014 - Bruneau C. and Cherfouh S. 14
Estimation procedure Three-step procedure:
1. Structural break identification pragmatic approach:
No closed-form solutions for the limiting distribution of the unit root test statistics in the case of multiple breaksGraphical examination of the long-run residuals choice of the dates that best corresponds to changes in the mean of the residual.Critical values obtained from Monte Carlo simulations.
2. FMOLS estimation of the cointegrating relationships for both sub-systems with their respective breaks.
3. OLS estimations of the ECM within each sub-system

Rent modelling
Table 1: Long-run equilibrium rent model
Notes: Dependent variable = ln(Real Rent). *, **, *** indicate significant at 10%, 5% and 1% respectively.
• Coefficient for vacancy rate: significant and expected sign
• All breaks are justified by referring to recent developments of the parisian market ; the related coefficients have the expected signs.
• For example:
1994Q4 → sharp rent correction consecutive to the bubble burst in the early 1990’s
2000Q4 → demand crisis: 2% vacancy rate for « relatively low » rental values → correction in the distorsion

Error correction term -0.29 *** -4.2

N 84 Adjusted R² 0.55
Durbin-Watson 2.16
Notes: Dependent variable = ln(Real Rent). *, **, *** indicate significant at 10%, 5% and 1% respectively.
• Error correction term is significant ; long run causality from the vacancy rate towards the rent (Granger, 1988)
• Speed of rental adjustement = 29%
• Relatively high speed of adjustement compared to other European markets Shorter lease lenght Higher market turnover
• Autoregressive structure of the rents

Demand modellingTable 3: Long-run equilibrium demand model
Notes: Dependent variable = ln(Occupied Space). *, **, *** indicate significant at 10%, 5% and 1% respectively.
• Coefficients for employment and rents: significant and expected signs
• All breaks can be interpreted and the related coefficients have the expected signs
• For example:
1993Q3 → downwards correction in the supply crisis context
2001Q3 → downwards demand correction relative to changing economic conditions
2007Q4 → financial crisis impact

Durbin-Watson 1.93
• Error correction term is significant
• Slow speed of space adjustement = 9%
• Space absorption is sticky due to rigidities
Long-term term leases Costs associated with lease

Conclusion and future work
• Results summary: Justified structural breaks allow us to capture
cointegrating relationships
Error correction approach confirmed as relevant to model space market Settles the traditional drivers of rents and demand in the long-
run Characterizes their role in the short-run outlines the
rigidities specific to the market structure
• On going work: Submarket analysis dynamics and interactions
between Parisian submarkets (Stevenson (2007), Ke and White (2014))
