Abstract

•House price overreacts to positive policy shock during the boom period.•No overreaction of house prices after a similar policy shock during the bust period.•Home purchasers’ expectations of future price change are based on lagged price growth.•Short-term speculators may be the main contributor to the housing price overreaction.
