This book is aimed at satisfying the need to bring together methods of analysis from several disciplines which can be applied to housing.
Is my planned project commercially viable? What should be my marketing and advertisement strategies? These are just some of the questions real estate agents, landlords and developers ask researchers to answer.
This is especially true in housing markets, where a multitude of different submarkets exist. The methodology chosen should be based on sound theory, from which the basic concepts of analysis can be derived.

This book also includes discussion of specific methodological challenges and ethical dilemmas faced by researchers.
