Do developer obligations stimulate or stifle housing supply? The case of community infrastructure Levy in England
National and local governments need to engage in a delicate balancing act so that the costs of new and/or improved local infrastructure tied to housing development does not stifle it. Addressing a notable gap in the literature, we focus on the impact of land-value capture tools on housing supply by analysing the piecemeal adoption of the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) in England, 2009–2019. The endogenous relationship among housing supply, l…
Forced homeward
Housing is a basic need. The Covid-19 pandemic has made that even a much greater need, especially during the lockdown restrictions. Some residents could meet that increased need relatively readily and some could not. As the eye of the Covid-19 storm appears to wane, the devastation is beginning to emerge with stark indications that it would take a very long time to rise and rebuild. It is also likely that the lockdown experience has made signific…
Imagining a post-Covid-19 world of real estate
The Covid-19 pandemic has triggered abrupt and enduring changes in almost every aspects of our life, society and economy. Although the real estate sector is generally slow to adjust and evolve, this pandemic is causing swift, far-reaching consequences for the sector. Changes are likely to be widespread, encompassing all sub-sectors of the industry. While the situation is still fluid and full spectrum of the impact of it is yet to unfold, we put f…
Expectation Adjustment in the Housing Market
This paper examines price expectation adjustment of house buyers and sellers to rapid changes in the housing market using data from Scotland where houses are sold through ‘first-price sealed-bid’ auctions. These auctions provide more information on market signals, incentives and the behaviour of market participants than private treaty sales. This paper therefore provides a theoretical framework for analysing revealed preference data generated fro…
Deserts and hotspots
The literature of bar and restaurant location patterns does not account sufficiently for temporal dynamics and the role of urban spatial. We address these gaps by developing a novel urban economic framework with a two-fold empirical approach: a) dynamic longitudinal Poisson models that incorporate socio-economics, demographics and accessibility to analyse temporal shifts in the concentration of bar and restaurants, or ‘hotspots’; and b) a longitu…
