CONSTRUCTION OF REGIONAL HOUSE PRICE INDEXES – THE CASE OF SWEDEN
Lars-Erik Eriksson (Valueguard) Han-Suck Song (KTH)
Jakob Winstrand (Valueguard)Mats Wilhelmsson (KTH and Uppsala University)
Motivation-Objective
• NasdaqOMX house price index– Insurance/financial products– Complete market
• Thin markets– Geographical or temporal aggregation?
• The objective is to construct house price indexes for all parts of Sweden or at least a large part of the economic value on the single-family housing market.
Literature
• Schwann (1998) – Nearby observation in time
• Englund et al (1999) – Temporal aggregation – not recommended
• McMillen (2003) – Nearby observations in space
• Francke and Vos (2004) – Nearby observations in time and space
Research Procedure
• Estimate hedonic price equation for each region• Perform a cluster analysis– Geographical proximity– Price development– Price level– Price development (2 years)– Combination
• Estimate hedonic price equation for each cluster• Evaluate the performance of the models– R2, MSE
Data
• Single-family houses• 2005-2010• Transaction price, contract date, size, quality,
coordinates
• 100 labor markets (93 with transactions)– Based on potential commuting
No. of transactions per month

Conclusion• Thin markets is a problem• It is not obvious how solve it• Temporal and geographical aggregation has been criticized• Especially arbitrary geographical aggregation
• New method how to aggregate in space based on cluster analysis of regions– Price development and geographical proximity
• Out-of-sample test• Other measures to evaluate the method?• Improve the cluster models
