Abstract: Many universities use tiered target publication lists to evaluate research for promotion and tenure. A survey finds U.S. real estate academics agree which criteria to use to classify journals into tiers. They also agree that a top tier should consist of four journals. While there is general agreement that Real Estate Economics and the Journal of Real Estate Finance and Economics are the top two journals, economists and real estate business academics differ in their assessment of the Journal of Urban Economics and the Journal of Real Estate Research as the third and fourth ranked journals. There is even less agreement about which journals should constitute the second tier. The distinction between real estate as an urban economics field and as a separate business discipline is evidenced by differences in perceptions of journals.
