AB - In this paper, we examine the relationship between household financial debt and the types of housing by using random-and fixed-effects tobit models with Korean Labor and Income Panel Survey. We find that the effects of leasing a house would be small on the household debt, relative to homeowners. In addition, the effects of living in an apartment or flats with shops in comparison to living in a detached house have been smaller on household debt over the period 2006-2010 than 1998-2005. Furthermore, we find that over the whole period 1998-2010, the financial debt gap between homeowners and leaseholders has been smaller in Seoul than in Busan or Daegu, and over the period 2006-2010 the financial debt gaps in Seoul and Busan have been both greater than before. Finally, it is noticeable that the effects of living in an apartment on household financial debt have been negligible during the same period. This empirical result may show, to some extent, the effects of the Debt-to-Income policy implemented by the Korean government in 2006.
