| Abstract: | This study deals with asset price bubbles and possible approaches for their identification. Afterwards focuses on real estate pricing mechanism and defines user cost or alternatively imputed rent as sum of all cash-flows connected to owning real estate property. These cash-flows consist of capital cost, depreciation rate, personal income and property taxes, additional asset risk and expected capital gain. Then we construct loglinear regression models for estimating recent price levels of purchase and renting for several segments on the real estate market. These estimated price levels after that compare with user costs. Comparison provides us with information about potential mispricing on Prague real estate market in examined segments. Study concludes that from long run point of view, all subjected segments are slightly underpriced. |
