The reference of housing economics at the international level

Real estate economics is the application of economic techniques to real estate markets. This category tries to describe, explain and predict price, supply and demand patterns. The near field of housing economics is narrower in scope, focusing on residential real estate markets, while research from real estate transaction trends focuses on the business and structural changes affecting the industry. Both cases draw on partial equilibrium analysis (supply and demand), urban economics, spatial economics, basic and extensive research, surveys, and finance.
