Preventing A Real Estate Bubble In Asia: Can Loan Securitisation Help?, Knowledge@Smu
Preventing A Real Estate Bubble In Asia: Can Loan Securitisation Help?, Knowledge@Smu
Knowledge@SMU
Real estate is among the most highly leveraged sectors of an economy, which makes it more likely than others to precipitate a financial crisis, as happened in some Asian countries in 1997-1998. At the recent East Asian Seminar on Economics (EASE) of the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER), held at Singapore Management University, Richard Green, Roberto S. Mariano, Andrey Pavlov and Susan Wachter presented a joint paper suggesting that asset securitisation could help reduce such risks. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Analyzing Construction-Related Market Trends In Apec Countries Using Gis, Low Sui Pheng, Benny Raphael, Faisal Manzoor Arain
Business Review
GIS (Geographical Information System) is a means of representing data in digital form that has been used increasingly in various domains. GIS has the ability to capture,model, manipulate, retrieve, analyze and present geographically referenced data. In managing overseas building projects, research and analysis are especially crucial. It is necessary to collect enough information of the country that is related to the rule of law, government policies, and the performance of individual economic sectors, among other things. Although GIS has been shown to be a useful tool in various types of planning and management, it has not been used so far …

Real Estate Development Workshop Projects
Students from Portland State University's Center for Real Estate produce a development plan for a recently acquired 4.03 acre property site called University Place. Their task was to produce an original development plan, including the development concept, market analysis, conceptual design, economic analysis, capital and operations budget, and management plan.

"What Is A Tree Worth? Green-City Strategies And Housing Prices." (With Susan Wachter), Grace W. Bucchianeri, Susan M. Wachter
Grace Wong Bucchianeri
We investigate the correlation between curb-side tree plantings and housing price movements in Philadelphia from 1998 to 2003, comparing two programs, one by the Philadelphia Horticultural Society that requires block-group effort that focuses on low-income neighbourhoods and the other by the Fairmount Park Commission that is individual-based without specific target areas. A 7 to 11 percent price differential is identified within 4000ft of the Fairmount tree plantings. We argue that this is largely driven by either social capital creation or a signaling mechanism, on the top of an intrinsic tree value (around 2 percent). Findings using the PHS tree program …
An Investigation Of Promotional Outlet Effectiveness For Ohio Real Estate Brokers, James E. Larsen, Joseph Coleman, Charles S. Gulas
An Investigation Of Promotional Outlet Effectiveness For Ohio Real Estate Brokers, James E. Larsen, Joseph Coleman, Charles S. Gulas
Finance and Financial Services Faculty Publication
This monograph presents survey data gathered from both Ohio residents and members of the Ohio Association of REALTORS®. The results of the public survey provide interesting information that may enable real estate licensees to effectively target their promotional efforts. The results suggest that if the objective is self promotion, any advertising medium is likely to have limited effectiveness. A large percentage of respondents indicated that they located the agent who assisted them in their housing transaction via reference from a friend or relative. Referrals are so important that a licensee should make every effort to cultivate this activity. Perhaps periodic …

"Be It Ever So Humble: Understanding Housing Using Subjective Well-Being Data", Grace Wong Bucchianeri
Grace Wong Bucchianeri
This paper presents new evidence on the utility – or well-being – derived from housing. There are three areas of focus: 1) how people feel at home versus outside home and if there is a positive athome differential, especially with respect to housing as a complementary good to family life; 2) whether well-being related to housing consumption varies by home values and homeownership status; and 3) if and how neighborhood home prices relate to home related well-being measures.
Do Property Assessors In Kentucky Value Residential Property At Fair Market Value?, Brian Smith
Do Property Assessors In Kentucky Value Residential Property At Fair Market Value?, Brian Smith
MPA/MPP/MPFM Capstone Projects
Assessors are required, as mandated by the Kentucky State Constitution and KRS 132.690, to assess property at 100 percent of fair market value. Fair market value is defined as the price a seller would expect to receive in an open and competitive market. Evidence from data and analysis in this paper indicates that property is under-assessed by approximately 25 percent. Though urban areas assess at a slightly higher rate, this is offset by rural areas, which do a significantly poorer job. This has important implications for local communities in Kentucky that depend on property tax revenue in order to provide …
An Impact Study Of Local Historic District Overlays On Property Values In Fayette County, Ky, Suzann Vogel
An Impact Study Of Local Historic District Overlays On Property Values In Fayette County, Ky, Suzann Vogel
MPA/MPP/MPFM Capstone Projects
Beginning with Fayette County’s first historic district in 1958, the process of assigning historic zoning status to qualifying neighborhoods was seen as a viable option for preserving local built cultural resources. More than a communicative symbol, H-1 districting limits dramatic exterior changes and the demolition of structures certified as contributing to the unique character of Lexington, KY. Guided by the Lexington-Fayette Urban County Government’s Division of Historic Preservation and Board of Architectural Review, the program currently encompasses 1,851 buildings over 14 districts.
In order to carry out the goal of preservation, historic districting in Lexington is applied in a blanketing …

The Experience Of A Lifestyle, Brian Lonsway
The Experience Of A Lifestyle, Brian Lonsway
School of Architecture - All Scholarship
This essay traces the evolution of themed environment design from theme parks to a series of new architectural types – Urban Entertainment Destinations, Lifestyle Enhancement Centers, and Lifestyle Villages – as a chronicle of spatial mediation from urban décor to urban design technique. Culled partly through semiotic deconstruction and partly through ethnographic investigation, this history examines the environmental design techniques employed in these spaces in order to better understand the relationship of design practice to the cultural practices of work and leisure.
From spatialized branding strategies to the neo-urbanist configurations of location-based entertainment, leisure/entertainment ventures use these narratively motivated techniques …
Moving Window Unit Root Test: Locating Real Estate Price Bubbles In Seoul Apartment Market, Shuping Shi
Moving Window Unit Root Test: Locating Real Estate Price Bubbles In Seoul Apartment Market, Shuping Shi
Dissertations and Theses Collection (Open Access)
Bubbles are characterized by rapid expansion followed by a contraction. Evans (1991) shows that stationarity tests suggested by Hamilton and Whiteman (1985) and Diba and Grossman (1988) are incapable of detecting periodically collapsing bubbles. Phillips, Wu, and Yu (2006) advanced the forward recursive unit root test which improves the power significantly in the presence of periodically collapsing bubbles. In this paper, we consider rolling window unit root test with a pre-selected optimum window. A combining use of conventional unit root test and forward recursive unit root test is suggested from the results of power comparison. Furthermore, we apply those three …
Two-Stage Least Squares: Simultaneous Determination Of Days On Market And Length Of Listing Contract, Matthew Joseph Davis
Two-Stage Least Squares: Simultaneous Determination Of Days On Market And Length Of Listing Contract, Matthew Joseph Davis
Theses & Honors Papers
Over eight million new and existing homes are sold each year, while every seller has a similar objective; to simultaneously maximize sales price and minimize the duration the home is on the market. There is no predetermined manner in which to select how long one should list the property with a broker, if the seller decides to not sell the property themselves, or how long a broker will need to sell the property. Numerous studies have been conducted to examine various factors affecting days on market (DOM), while no research has been conducted on the effect length of contract (LOC) …

Seeing The Forest For The Trees: The Future Of Timber Investing In The North Woods -- A Conversation With Clark S. Binkley, Peter Howell
Maine Policy Review
In this conversation with Peter Howell, Clark Binkley draws on his long-term experience as a timberland investment manager to give his analysis of and forecast for timber markets and timber investing in the Northern Forest. While he is not optimistic about the current prospects for such investments, he does believe that there are some opportunities in conservation easements, residential development, and possibly biofuels and carbon credits.
Lurc’S Challenge: Managing Growth In Maine’S Unorganized Territories, Jerry Bley
Lurc’S Challenge: Managing Growth In Maine’S Unorganized Territories, Jerry Bley
Maine Policy Review
Maine’s Land Use Regulation commission (LURC) oversees an area covering roughly half the state. Plum Creek’s Moosehead Lake Concept Plan has brought LURC into the spotlight. Jerry Bley presents the history of this unique agency, the lands under its jurisdiction, how it has managed development, and what may lie ahead. In developing its Comprehensive Land Use Plan update, LURC needs to seek common ground for solutions that preserve the unique qualities of the area in its jurisdiction, while providing landowners opportunities to realize the financial values of their lands.

Real Estate Mutual Funds: A Style Analysis, Crystal Lin, Kenneth Yung
Real Estate Mutual Funds: A Style Analysis, Crystal Lin, Kenneth Yung
Finance Faculty Publications
We find that the characteristics of real estate related securities are different from those of the general common equities. To help investors understand better the products offered by real estate mutual funds, we develop style descriptors that are specifically created for real estate related securities. Among the universe of real estate securities, we find real estate funds tilt toward large stocks and favor growth moderately over value. Growth managers outperform value mangers in this sector by 1.51% to 2.30% per year. However, there is evidence of shifts in the investment style among the funds. Our results help investors in evaluating …
The Singapore Model Of Housing And The Welfare State, Sock Yong Phang
The Singapore Model Of Housing And The Welfare State, Sock Yong Phang
Research Collection School Of Economics
While Singapore is not generally regarded as a welfare state, the provision of housing welfare on a large scale has been a defining feature of its welfare system. The extensive housing system has played a useful role in raising savings and homeownership rates as well as contributing to sustained economic growth in general and development of the housing sector in particular. Few would dispute the description of Singapore’s housing policies as 'phenomenally successful' (Ramesh, 2003). Singapore’s economic growth record in the past four decades has brought it from third world to first world status (Lee, 2000), with homeownership widespread at …
