| The housing sector constitutes one of the fundamental components of the construction industry which holds a significant share within national economies. The ability to make successful housing investments is related to the thorough analysis and predictability of housing markets. Recent technological advancements in the construction sector are anticipated to lead to shorter construction completion times. In the study, the potential impact of the shortened construction completion times resulting from technological advancements in the construction sector on housing markets is investigated with a system dynamics approach. The research, limited to Ankara housing market, utilizes quantitative data such as the number of newly sold primary housing units, population and household numbers, building permit statistics, construction cost index (CCI), and domestic producer price index (D-PPI) for the period between 2013 and 2021, alongside qualitative data related to the region. According to the analysis findings, it is determined that in case construction completion times decrease to 3.5 months, fluctuations in monthly housing sales volume will occur within a narrower range. The expedited construction of housing units through evolving construction technologies suggests an alternative path towards achieving more predictable market conditions. |
