Estimating Real Estate Price Movements for High Frequency Tradable Indexes in a Scarce Data Environment
Indexes of commercial property prices face much scarcer transactions data than housing indexes, yet the advent of tradable derivatives on commercial property places a premium on both high frequency and accuracy of such indexes. The dilemma is that with scarce data a low-frequency return index (su...

description | Indexes of commercial property prices face much scarcer transactions data
than housing indexes, yet the advent of tradable derivatives on commercial property
places a premium on both high frequency and accuracy of such indexes. The
dilemma is that with scarce data a low-frequency return index (such as annual) is
necessary to accumulate enough sales data in each period. This paper presents an
approach to address this problem using a two-stage frequency conversion procedure,
by first estimating lower-frequency indexes staggered in time, and then applying a
generalized inverse estimator to convert from lower to higher frequency return
series. The two-stage procedure can improve the accuracy of high-frequency indexes
in scarce data environments. In this paper the method is demonstrated and analyzed
by application to empirical commercial property repeat-sales data. |
