Real Estate Income and Value Cycles: A Model of Market Dynamics

  • Chapter
A Global Perspective on Real Estate Cycles

Abstract

There is growing recognition among academics and practitioners that volatile macro, regional and local economic factors exert important influences on the cyclic behavior of real estate markets. Even though the economy itself may have changed, real estate cycles remain. The most recent example of the commercial real estate cycle occurred in the late 1980s and early 1990’s.The unusual and severely distressed state of the U.S. commercial real estate markets during this period has been followed with an upturn of these markets in the mid 1990’s.

We acknowledge and thank the Fisher Center for Real Estate and Urban Economics at the Haas School of Business for its generous support of this project .
