The undisputed predictive power of machine learning (ML) models often plays a crucial role in the 'disruption' of traditional processes. However, an accountability gap...

The two primary approaches to estimate marginal willingness-to-pay (MWTP) for differentiated goods are hedonics (Rosen, 1974) and discrete choice models (McFadden, 1974). Researchers have alluded to a duality between both models. The innovation in this paper is to show that the hedonic MWTP can...

This study contributes a house price prediction model selection in Tehran City based on the area between Lorenz curve (LC) and concentration curve (CC) of the predicted price by using 206,556 observed transaction data over the period from March 21, 2018, to February 19, 2021. Several different...

This paper employs four established market microstructure measures on information-based trade in financial markets. A set of German mid and small caps is used to analyze potential differential information content in real estate stocks compared to other asset classes. After linking substantially...

We study the micro-level evolution of residential house prices using data on repeat sales on Manhattan Island from 2004 to 2015. We document that excess price comovement is a highly local and persistent phenomenon. The strength of such excess comovements vanishes with both spatial and temporal...

Real estate—housing in particular—is a less profitable investment in the long run than previously thought. We hand-collect property-level financial data for the institutional real estate portfolios of four large Oxbridge colleges over the period 1901–1983. Gross income yields initially...
