How Does the Completion of the Prague Metro Stations Affect Prices of Adjacent Properties?
Chmelík, Jakub ; Komrska, Martin (advisor) ; Mirvald, Michal (referee)
This thesis analyzes the impact of the newly built Prague metro stations on prices of adjacent apartments. The completion of stations improves accessibility of the city center for many areas in Prague. Impact of the improved accessibility on property prices is estimated using a hedonic price model. The dataset was created in February 2015 and contains new apartments throughout the city. The result of the hedonic model is that each minute the journey to the city center takes longer, reduces prices of new apartments by 1,15%. The total increase in apartment prices then depends on the amount of minutes by which the journey time was shortened. This result confirms the main hypothesis that the new metro stations would increase prices of new apartments in affected areas. Based on the results of the model the so called bid rent function is constructed. The shape of the function confirms the assumption made in the theoretical part of the thesis that apartment prices decrease with distance from the city center.
