Canadian Inter‐City House Price Differentials

Real Estate Economics, 1986, vol. 14, issue 4, 525-536

Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to identify the sources of intercity house price differentials in Canada. The results indicate that demand factors are important explanatory variables; a 1% increase in the income of households raises house prices by 1.11%; higher rates of anticipated inflation result in higher house prices as households increase their demand for real assets such as housing during inflationary periods; and finally, the fraction of households that are non‐family households is positively associated with house prices. These results are in agreement with those of other countries.
