Abstract
How do buyers decide whether a property is over-priced? Do they base their judgement simply on the difference between the asking price and the expected selling price? Or do they take into account local bidding conventions—the typical asking-selling price spread in the neighbourhood? This paper explores the implications of bidding conventions for the definition and measurement of the degree of over-pricing (DOP) and the effect this has on a survival model of time on the market. The paper also considers the impact of uncertainty and employs fractional polynomial regression to explore whether spatio-temporal variations in attribute prices affect market perceptions of over-pricing.
