Brief Session Description
Depreciation rate is usually underestimated in hedonic house price models, primarily because it is difficult to capture the effect of maintenance to house price appreciation. This session illustrates a new nonlinear repeat sales model concept that distinguishes quality–adjusted house price inflation, age effect and vintage effect to obtain accurate in–house sales–based depreciation rates.
