Abstract
Residential mobility patterns of individual households in The Netherlands are studied by means of a probit model. Two surveys were available for this study: one held at the end of 1977 sampled data on the previous dwelling, the willingness to move, dwelling preferences and a variety of household characteristics; a second held a year later in 1978 to assess differences between the actual moving behaviour and the earlier formulated willingness to move house and dwelling preferences. Much attention is paid in the paper to the entire strategy of the research. Some empirical results are presented illustrating the potential of this method of housing market analysis.
