Annual sector indices are susceptible to price differences provoked by major environmental changes. Therefore, it is really important to take into consideration different situations and apply an appropriate method for constructing WLS estimator. The objective of our research is to compare...

"An important objective in the construction of real estate price indices is the creation of subindices by region or by neighbourhood. Environmental changes such as the improvement in the accessibility of a neighbourhood will result in different price changes across neighbourhoods. It is...

There are two well-known methods developed for constructing house price indices: the hedonistic model and the repeat sales technique. Our research focuses on the repeat sales methodology and suggests introducing the time dependence into the model. Growth rates or indices are of interest.

Les sociétés immobilières cotées n'ont pas encore fait, en France, l'objet de travaux académiques importants, alors que leurs actifs sous-jacents ont un intérêt économique fondamental parce qu'ils représentent la moitié de la richesse nationale. Cette étude, après avoir construit des...

An important objective in the construction of real estate price indices is the creation of sub-indices by region or by neighbourhood. Environmental changes such as the improvement in the accessibility of a neighbourhood will result in different price changes across neighbourhoods. It is...

In the framework of the standard repeat-sales model to estimate house price indices, we present a new methodology based on the application of a final compound return (FCR) that is constrained to prevent revisions of past values of the index. The proposed technique, being straightforward, has a...

Analysing the existing unbiased estimators for house price indices in the framework of the repeat sales approach, we discuss the necessity to improve the technique revealing its weak points. We present a new methodology based on the application of a final compound return (FCR). The proposed...

In recent research it has been argued that the hedonic regression technique can be usefully applied to the valuation of residential property. This research has focused on the valuation of owneroccupied dwellings. It is the aim of this paper to show how this technique can also usefully be applied...
