Housing concept in the European context
Neumann, Michal ; Vaňková, Lucie (referee) ; Krejza, Zdeněk (advisor)
The topic of the diploma thesis is a comparison of the housing policy of the Czech Republic with respect to other European countries. Due to the different economic, historical and political situations of the individual states and their geographical location, attention is focused on the neighboring states of the Czech Republic. The selected group of assessed states provides sufficiently diverse situations and approaches to housing policy, so that the effectiveness of individual measures that could be applied to the environment of the Czech Republic could be evaluated. In the theoretical part, the basic directions of housing policy and related principles characteristic of the housing market are presented, as well as an assessment of national and transnational circumstances contributing to the final form of housing policy. In the practical part, the situation of the housing policy and its instruments in a longer time horizon and the reaction to their reactions to unexpected transnational circumstances are evaluated. The result of the practical part is a statistically based evaluation of individual housing policies and their individual parts. The conclusion of the diploma thesis contains the author's commentary and suggestions for optimizing the elements of housing policy and defining the basic risks of housing policy in the Czech Republic.

Choosing a housing financing product
ZACHOVÁ, Miluše
The topic of my thesis is Product selection for housing financing. I chose this topic because it is thematically closest to me at the moment. The first part of the thesis is the theoretical part. This part will mainly deal with defining all the products that are suitable for financing housing. Specifically, the thesis will describe building savings, mortgage loans, consumer loans, government loans for young people, financing through own savings and financing through an American mortgage. Furthermore, the advantages and disadvantages of individual products will be written down here. In the penultimate part of the diploma thesis, the offers of the five largest banks on the Czech market will be selected. The parameters of individual offers will be written down and compared with each other in terms of several criteria. The last part of the theoretical part of the thesis will be dedicated only to the topic of multi-criteria decision making. Specifically, the basics of understanding the multi-criteria evaluation of variants will be described here. The scoring method and the weight distribution method will also be defined here in more detail. The last part of the thesis will be devoted only to the practical part. The practical part of the thesis will use the data obtained from the theoretical part. In the practical part, scoring methods and methods of gradual decomposition of weights will be used to obtain the weights of individual criteria. The final ranking of banks' offers will also be determined based on the scoring method. In the practical part, two respondents will also be approached for the reason that a different point of view than my subjective one will be brought into the diploma thesis. In the last part of the thesis, a general methodology for choosing a mortgage loan from a bank will be written, which will offer the best possible conditions for the client. At the end, there will be a written discussion containing the positives and negatives of the performed procedures. The aim of the thesis is to select the product that will be the most advantageous for real estate financing. The main task of the thesis will therefore be to find the currently most advantageous product, consider its positives and negatives and propose a general methodology for selecting this product. The last task will be to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of the proposed procedures and possibly suggest other and more appropriate procedures for choosing the most suitable product for real estate financing.

Indruch, Ondřej ; Bílý, Radoslav (referee) ; Palacký, Jiří (advisor)
The theoretical diploma thesis follows up on the undergraduate work examining the issue of „Platform urbanism“ using the method of studying literature. Starting with physical platforms, their interconnection with digital platforms and the concept of a smart city, to a possible overlap into virtual reality. The theoretical diploma thesis examines the transformation of urban space through digital platforms from the perspective of experience and knowledge from advanced development abroad to early development in the city of Brno in order to answer the established research question: „What is the role of platforms within the city and how do they influence its development?“ Through knowledge from undergraduate work and the connection to the concept of a smart city, three main sectors - transport, real estate, shopping, and three additional sectors - health, identification, communication - are selected with regard to city life, basic human needs and representation on digital platforms. According to ownership, individual sectors are divided into those managed by the city, region and state and otherwise by private companies. Specific representatives of digital platforms are divided according to the scale of the platform or operating company into three fields - local, regional, global. This creates an up-to-date overview of relevant digital platforms operating in the city of Brno in order to answer the second research question set by the author during the work: „Is it possible to compile an overview of urban platforms that affect city life and development?“ To gain experience and knowledge in the city of Brno, a questionnaire survey was conducted focused on individual sectors of digital platforms operating in the city. Based on local and foreign knowledge and experience, a SWOT analysis is compiled for individual sectors of digital platforms. The examination of individual sectors is concluded by a critical evaluation and subsequent recommendations or solutions. The research on the issue of platform urbanism, specifically digital platforms, is finally evaluated from the author‘s point of view. Based on research findings, the author theoretically proposes a digital solution with possible global application and a physical solution for a specific sector of actors operating in Brno.
