This paper employs a Time-Varying Parameter Vector Autoregression Directional-Spillover (TVP-VAR-DY) model to investigate the dynamic spillover effects among China's energy, real estate, and stock markets from 2013 to 2023, with a focus on the impact of extreme events. The findings show that the...

This study provides a test for measurement of spatial competition in residential real estate markets. Several alternative spatial competition measures are tested. We employ a Bertrand oligopoly model with differentiated products and adopt a Spatial Autoregressive model using a two stage least...

This paper studies the impact of UNESCO World Heritage List (WHL) inscription on income and property values in the Italian municipalities that had their sites inscribed during the past two decades. To address the selection bias and identify the causal impact of inscription, we focus on sites...

This study investigated the relationship between a sector-specific Australian Real Estate Investment Trust (A-REITs) and the underlying property assets in its property portfolio. The existing studies have assessed the connectedness/correlation between the A-REITs market and a variety of other...

Great differences are observed in the way of living, the quality of living, and the type of property ownership in individual countries of the world. However, housing affordability is currently a significant issue in every developed country. At the same time, it is also an important factor of...

Housing markets are affected by a large variety of factors. Among them, governmental regulations play an important role. Besides desired effects, all these policies exert a number of side effects, some of which can even offset the desired effects. In addition, different policies can cancel out...

We use rich microdata from Denmark to study the effects of increased remote working on housing demand and property prices during the pandemic. We find that the rise in remote working exerted upward pressure on housing demand, and consequently, property prices. The analysis shows that people who...

This study examines whether the COVID-19 pandemic led to lasting shifts in residential housing valuation in the UK, focusing on Greater London and seven major cities. The following questions are addressed: a) Was this change in residential valuations temporary, or is it likely to be permanent?...

This paper provides the first study of climate risk pricing in euro area commercial real estate markets. We pay particular attention to changes in risk pricing over time, as a sudden market shift may significantly amplify the financial stability and macroeconomic implications of these risks. We...

We examine how rising energy costs affect rental housing markets and inequality. Using listing data for the 30 largest German cities from 2015–2024, we find that higher energy prices are passed through to net rents in high-rent segments, where inefficient properties see significant rent...

The European financial system faces significant risks from excessive bank lending to the real estate sector. Historical trends show a strong link between real estate credit booms and banking crises. Current data indicate that real estate loans constitute a substantial share of banks' corporate...

Using around 1 million repeat sales, we show idiosyncratic risk in real house price appreciation is time-varying, depends negatively on the initial house price, varies across locations, and decreases with the holding period. These systematic movements in idiosyncratic risk can be explained by...

Dieses Arbeitspapier befasst sich mit der Analyse der Attraktivität Deutschlands im Kontext internationaler Immobilieninvestitionen. Hierbei werden insbesondere die Chancen und Risiken grenzüberschreitender Investitionen mit den konkreten Vorteilen deutscher Investitionen verglichen....

We develop a statistical-methodological framework for a set of core commercial real estate market indicators, which consists of a market price index, a gross rent index, and a net rental yield index as well a vacancy rate. We argue that the indicators should be (macro-)consistent, meaning that...

This paper shows that not all housing price cycles are alike. The nature of the housing expansion phase-especially whether a housing price boom characterized by rapid and persistent house price growth is present-plays a key role in shaping the severity of the subsequent contraction, and the net...

The study examines housing affordability in Germany from 2017 to 2023 in light of rising real estate prices and challenges in the housing market. It uses the Housing Affordability Index to identify trends and patterns and propose policy measures to tackle the problems. The results show regional...

This study explores the relationship between income growth and housing prices in Poland's seven largest cities from 2013 to 2024. Through statistical analysis, the research reveals a strong correlation between average gross wages, and both offer and transaction prices in the real estate market,...

We examine the evolution of spatial house price dispersion during Germany's recent housing boom. Using a dataset of sales listings, we find that house price dispersion has significantly increased, which is driven entirely by rising price variation across postal codes. We show that both price...

This paper presents novel estimates of the incidence of corporate taxes by measuring the effect of local business taxes on the welfare of commercial landowners, residential landowners, firm owners, and workers. We use unique data on real estate prices in Germany covering over 32 million...

This paper studies how dynamic changes in the search environment affect consumer search and purchase behavior. We develop a dynamic model that incorporates a non-stationary search environment and propose a feasible estimation procedure to estimate its parameters. We apply our model and...

This paper provides the first study of climate risk pricing in euro area commercial real estate markets. We pay particular attention to changes in risk pricing over time, as a sudden market shift may significantly amplify the financial stability and macroeconomic implications of these risks. We...
