The study was conducted using functional, situational, system approaches using methods of logical and causal analyzes and peer reviews, as well as through economic and mathematical modeling.

Scientific novelty lies in the economic and mathematical analysis of the state of the housing fund and the development of ways to improve housing management on its basis.

Practical significance of this paper is that the presented economical and mathematical model can be used to further analysis of the housing sphere and to determine a new ways of improving this system.
