Some information on the session logistics:
If not stated otherwise, the discussant is the following speaker, with the first speaker being the discussant of the last paper. The last speaker of each session is the session chair. (Exception: invited sessions)
Presenters should speak for no more than 20 minutes, and discussants should limit their remarks to no more than 5 minutes. The remaining time should be reserved for audience questions and the presenter’s responses. We suggest following these guidelines also in the (less common) 3-paper sessions in a 2-hour slot, to allow participants to move between sessions. Discussants are encouraged to avoid summarizing the paper. By focusing on a few questions and comments, the discussants can help start a broader discussion with the audience.

The Anatomy of the Property Pass-through in Rental Markets 1: Banco de España, Spain; 2: Banco de España, Spain; 3: Oxford University We examine the incidence of property taxation in urban rental markets in Spain using novel administrative microdata that link taxpayers to their real estate holdings. Leveraging cross-municipality variation in property tax parameters, we estimate the pass-through to rents and the effect on vacant rental supply. Our results show that landlords raise rents by approximately €0.85 for every €1.00 increase in their property tax liability. This effect is concentrated in long-term residential leases and is amplified at contract renewal, where stricter rent-control provisions limit rent updating in ongoing contracts. Pass-through is also disproportionately higher among small-scale and low-educated landlords. In addition, we find that property tax hikes lead to a modest increase in the supply of vacant units, but only in the commercial segment. These findings underscore the role of property taxation in shaping housing affordability.
