Abstract

Purpose - This paper develops a new decomposition method of the housing market variations to analyse the housing dynamics of the Australian eight capital cities. Design/methodology/approach - This study reviews the prior research on analysing the housing market variations and classifies the previous methods into four main models. Based on this, the study develops a new decomposition of the variations, which is made up of regional information, home‐market information and time information. The panel data regression method, unit root test andFtest are adopted to construct the model and interpret the housing market variations of the Australian capital cities. Findings - This paper suggests that the Australian home‐market information has the same elasticity to the housing market variations across cities and time. In contrast, the elasticities of the regional information are distinguished. However, similarities exit in the west and north of Australia or the south and east of Australia. The time information contributes differently along the observing period, although the similarities are found in certain periods. Originality/value - This paper introduces the housing market variation decomposition into the research of housing market variations and develops a model based on the new method of the housing market variation decomposition.
