Real Estate

Brendan Brown

Chapter 5 in A Theory of Hedge Investment, 1982, pp 89-110 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Real estate is regarded commonly as an inflation hedge. We have all heard how ‘bricks and mortar’ retain value in an age of fast-depreciating paper monies. In the present chapter, the inflation-hedge function, together with other possible hedge functions of real estate, are examined. Different types of real estate — residential, commercial, and agricultural — are distinguished, which are in turn further subdivided according to quality.
