Background
Having an accurate housing price model is important for the government or policymakers as properties plays a significant role in household wealth and national economy. To date, the hedonic pricing model is still the commonly used method by researchers to study housing prices. Hedonic pricing models are often computed using an ordinary least squares (OLS) estimator, with the assumption that the observations are independent and identically distributed. This indicates that there is no spatial auto-correlation among the observations but in reality, that might not be true and thus, a hedonic pricing model could lead to biased, inconsistent and inefficient results. Moreover, when new developments are launched, the developers dictate the prices. Our team attempts to understand the price variation for new launches.
Our team attempts to explore the use of various statistically methods to provide insights to the property transnational data.
Motivation
Our research and development efforts were motivated by the general lack of effective and easy to use web-enabled client-based analytics tool for discovering Singapore property price trends. It aims to provide
users with an analytical tool for discovering insights to Singapore property prices through easy-to-understand visual analytics charts. Specifically, it attempts to support the following analysis requirements:
1) To visualise price changes in different areas of Singapore over time;
2) To compare the price range and transaction volume of different areas of Singapore;
3) To identify if the average unit price of a private property project is above or below the average unit price of the planning area and its extent of differences;
4) To enable users to perform statistical analysis on the price distribution of different property types and regions in Singapore.
Project Objectives
The objectives of the project are as follows:
1) To find out how different planning area behave with regards to price and number of transaction;
2) To find out the difference between property type, type of sale and between the 2 years;
3) To understand the extent to which area has on the price;
4) To visually represent our findings.
Proposed Scope and Methodology
We will confine our work to the private housing market in Singapore. This is because HDBs has many restrictions imposed and therefore to some extent, its prices are controlled. In contrast, the private housing market is open to all buyers and subjected to market forces.
Our team will be exploring the prices and transaction volume to generate insights.
Project Timeline
Features
Our visualization contains the following features:
1) Overview of Singapore's private property by Planning Area using "geofacet" with HUD of summary statistics
i) HUD to display overall Units Sold, Mean Price, Median Price
2) Ridgeplot of distribution of Prices by both Planning Area and Postal District
3) Treemap showing the relationship between the Sale Volume and Price by Projects
4) Statistical test for the price
Data Source & Preparation
We will use REALIS data, 2018 & 2019, for our project.
