DESCRIPTION

This course provides a behavioral perspective on real estate decision making and markets. In particular, students learn how behavioral biases affect the decisions of participants in real estate markets, and how the bounded rationality of market participants can explain real estate market dynamics. The course starts with a general introduction into the psychology of decision making. The second part provides a psychological perspective on property valuations, negotiation outcomes, and mortgage choices. The last part of the course considers the efficiency and dynamics of real estate markets, with a special focus on bubbles and crashes.

Contact hours listed under a course description may vary due to the combination of lecture-based and independent work required for each course therefore, CEA's recommended credits are based on the ECTS credits assigned by VU Amsterdam. 1 ECTS equals 28 contact hours assigned by VU Amsterdam.
