چکیده

[Naeini1]  Housing is the third top factor in human life, after food and clothing in all communities. Many variables are involved in determining housing prices and it is impossible to ignore housing feedback. One of the powerful tools to determine the impact of policies in this field is using system dynamics approach. According to this approach, the cause-and- effect diagram of factors affecting housing prices in Tehran is presented for dynamic model. To simulate the intended model Vensim software was used. Finally, scenario making was conducted to consider various policies in housing market. The results show that enhanceing other provinces' facilities, increasing the supply of affordable housing by the government as well as loaning for construction decrease the housing price thereby the price would be balanced.
