Constructing high-resolution housing price indices for the Netherlands:Spinlab Research Memorandum SL-14

Abstract

The main research objective of this subproject is to quantify the spatial variation in revenues that can be expected from different types of residential development. Based on this information the relative profitability of different urban development strategies can be assessed in subsequent simulations in a land-use modelling environment. The current report tries to address which factors matter for the added-value of locations in housing prices, looking at factors such as proximity to jobs, distance to train stations, the presence of amenities, or the amount of nature in the area
