Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Spatial Analysis and Real Estate Studies have numerous connections. Spatial dependence within the real estate markets is often studied using hedonic price regressions with the objective to quantify property value benefits of amenities such as access to public transport, parks, and water, but also negative impacts due to noise, pollution, and crime. This Special Issue aims to bring together work at the spatial analysis and real estate interface with conceptual and methodological contributions, case studies from around the world, and new insights to enhance the understanding of how spatial analysis can increase our understanding of real estate markets.

We invite papers focusing on, but not limited to, the following topics:

  • Land use development and change: drivers, patterns, restructuring, and efficiency;
  • Urban expansion/shrinakge: directions, structures, and dynamics;
  • Gentrification and neighborhood development;
  • Agglomeration effects and real estate markets;
  • Spatial (re)scaling and real estate markets;
  • Challenges (disaster, crime, pollution, vacant house) and real estate markets;
  • Mega development projects and real estate markets;
  • Transport planning/development and real estate markets;
  • Space/place/geography as agents in real state studies;
  • Urban land use policy and governance and the role of institutions;
  • Equitable mobility development and real estate markets;
  • Sustainable land use and urban development policies and practices;
  • Methodology development including: exploratory spatial data analysis (ESDA), hedonic spatial regression, remote sensing, modeling and caputuring of neighborhood effects, geographically weighted regression, spatiotemporal dynamics, etc.

Please keep in mind that papers selected for this Special Issue entitled “Spatial Analysis and Real Estate Studies” will be subject to a rigorous peer review procedure with the aim of rapid and wider dissemination of research results, developments, and applications. It is hoped that the outcomes of this issue will contribute to a broadening of the understanding of the spatial and temporal aspects of the real estate market and its processes, and practices and their intertwinement to sustainable development. Each paper should consider the problem-oriented and application-oriented focus of the journal. The authors will complement deep and state-of-the-art conceptual and empirical analysis and discuss the practical consequences of their findings.
