seattle_sales

datasets

Compute house price indexes and series using a variety of different methods and
models common through the real estate literature. Evaluate index 'goodness' based
on accuracy, volatility and revision statistics. Background on basic model construction
for repeat sales models can be found at: Case and Quigley (1991) <doi:10.2307/2109686> and
for hedonic pricing models at: Bourassa et al (2006) <doi:10.1016/j.jhe.2006.03.001>.
