Real Estate Issues Series Managing Editors Stephen Brown Head of Research, Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors John Henneberry D epartment of Town & Regional Planning, University of Sheffi eld K.W. Chau Chair Professor, Department of Real Estate and Construction, The University of Hong Kong Elaine Worzala Professor, Director of the Accelerated MSRE, Edward St. John Department of Real Estate, Johns Hopkins University Real Estate Issues is an international book series presenting the latest thinking into how real estate markets operate. The books have a strong theoretical basis – providing the underpinning for the development of new ideas. The books are inclusive in nature, drawing both upon established tech- niques for real estate market analysis and on those from other academic disciplines as appropriate. The series embraces a comparative approach, allowing theory and practice to be put forward and tested for their appli- cability and relevance to the understanding of new situations. It does not seek to impose solutions, but rather provides a more effective means by which solutions can be found. It will not make any presumptions as to the importance of real estate markets but will uncover and present, through the clarity of the thinking, the real signifi cance of the operation of real estate markets.
