A Spatial Model of Housing Returns and Neighborhood SubstitutabilityThe Journal of Real Estate Finance and Economics - Tập 14 - Trang 11-31 - 1997
William N. Goetzmann, Matthew Spiegel
This article provides a method for estimating housing indices at the local level. It develops a ““distance-weighted repeat-sales”” procedure to exploit the factor structure of the error-covariance matrix in the repeat-sales model. A distance function defined in characteristic and geographical space provides weights for the generalized least-squares model, and allows the use of all of the repeated ...... hiện toàn bộ
Private Investment, Public Aid and Endogenous Divergence in the Evolution of Urban NeighborhoodsThe Journal of Real Estate Finance and Economics - Tập 32 - Trang 83-100 - 2006
Lanny Arvan, David Nickerson
This paper offers a novel explanation for urban blight and endogenous divergence in the overall quality and wealth of neighborhoods and simultaneously derives the salient features of actual urban renewal and other aid programs from optimizing government behavior based on collective public preferences. These features appear when the objective of such public aid programs is to restore the ex ante di...... hiện toàn bộ
Regulatory Capital Arbitrage and the Potential Competitive Impact of Basel II in the Market for Residential MortgagesThe Journal of Real Estate Finance and Economics - Tập 35 - Trang 197-219 - 2007
Paul S. Calem, James R. Follain
U.S. banking regulators have proposed a bifurcated system of capital regulation where the largest, internationally active banking organizations would be subject to significantly more risk sensitive regulatory capital requirements than are currently in place, while most others would remain subject to the current rules. The proposed new capital regime has the potential to affect the competitive land...... hiện toàn bộ
Performance based mortgage-backed securities indexingThe Journal of Real Estate Finance and Economics - Tập 1 - Trang 185-193 - 1988
Ronald W. Chapman
The traditional approaches to indexing first developed for equities and then adapted to bonds are not effective for mortgage-backed securities. This paper details a new technique for indexing portfolios of mortgage-backed securities which rectifies the deficiencies of the older cellular method. By focusing on the performance characteristics of the bonds adjusted for their embedded options, we at o...... hiện toàn bộ
Market States and the Effect on Equity REIT Returns due to Changes in Monetary Policy StanceThe Journal of Real Estate Finance and Economics - Tập 45 - Trang 364-382 - 2010
Ming-Chi Chen, Chi-Lu Peng, So-De Shyu, Jhih-Hong Zeng
This study investigates the effect of changes in monetary policy on US equity real estate investment trust (EREIT) returns in lower and higher return ranges during bull, bear, and volatile stock market states using quantile regression. Results show that EREIT returns are sensitive to changes in monetary policy at different EREIT return ranges in different market states. During bull markets, change...... hiện toàn bộ
Usefulness of the Information Contained in the Prediction Sample for the Spatial Error ModelThe Journal of Real Estate Finance and Economics - Tập 47 - Trang 169-195 - 2011
Takafumi Kato
A recent study proposed an estimation approach that uses data on the independent variables and location for the prediction sample, and suggested that it may improve estimation and prediction. This is an incomplete data approach following an iterative process along the lines of the EM algorithm. The present study compares this approach with a partial data approach that uses only data on the depende...... hiện toàn bộ
Energy Efficiency Information and Valuation Practices in Rental HousingThe Journal of Real Estate Finance and Economics - Tập 60 - Trang 181-204 - 2019
Andrea Chegut, Piet Eichholtz, Rogier Holtermans, Juan Palacios
The consensus in the academic literature is that energy efficiency is associated with transaction value premiums, but it is not clear to what extent property appraisers take account of this. We decompose external appraisals of rental housing by international valuation firms in England and the Netherlands in two waves, keeping the samples of valued homes constant between these years. We find a nota...... hiện toàn bộ
