Urban Economics and Real Estate Avis

This book provides the rich context essential to understanding the market and public policy forces that shape residential and commercial real estate markets. Classic and emerging theories are presented with freshness and anchored in the real world by an abundance of relevant data. Defining housing with the 'House of Muth' and the 'House of Lancaster/Rosen' and starting the chapter on transportation with 'There's no such thing as a free road' make for lively reading. This book will set the standard for the intersection between urban and real estate economics. Glenn Blomquist, University of Kentucky This book expertly melds theory and empirical hypothesis testing. McDonald and McMillen deftly convey why urban economics is such an exciting field of study. Students will be fascinated. Matthew Kahn, The Fletcher School, Tufts University This book is a winner. Its skillful blend of real estate, urban microeconomics, and urban growth will meet the needs of nearly every urban economics course. McDonald and McMillen have produced an outstanding text. Edward Coulson, Pennsylvania State University This masterful book by two of the most active researchers and clearest expositors in urban economics renders cutting-edge research on contemporary issues accessible to the general reader. Its fresh perspective yields both precision and incisiveness. Marcus Berliant, Washington University, St. Louis
