New Place-to-Place Housing Price Indexes for U.S. Metropolitan Areas, and Their Determinants

TLDR
This paper constructed new place-to-place indexes of the price of housing, using the 1990 Census, and analyzed the determinants of housing prices, with a particular focus on the supply side determinants, as well as the usual demand determinants.
Abstract
Housing prices vary widely from market to market in the United States. The purpose of this study is to (1) construct new place-to-place indexes of the price of housing, using the 1990 Census, and (2) analyze the determinants of housing prices, with a particular focus on the supply side determinants—regulatory and natural constraint—as well as the usual demand determinants.

The Composition of Hedonic Pricing Models

TL;DR: In this paper, a house is made up of many characteristics, all of which may affect its value, and Hedonic regression analysis is typically used to estimate the marginal contribution of these individual characteristic.

The social and private micro-level consequences of homeownership

TL;DR: This article reviewed the literature that describes the micro-level economic and social consequences of homeownership and found that much of the past 30-year's literature on consequences of homeowning is deficient from a theoretical or econometric perspective.

The Effects of Different

Choice of functional form for hedonic price equations

TL;DR: In this paper, a statistical procedure for the choice of functional form for a hedonic price equation is proposed, and a highly general functional form is specified that yields all other functional forms of interest as special cases.

The Estimation of Demand Parameters in Hedonic Price Models

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that the problem of estimating hedonic demand parameters is not a standard identification problem caused by demand-supply interaction, as has been often assumed.
