Abstract

ABSTRACT Existing research finds price premiums for homes adjacent to golf courses, but this research fails to empirically examine if the premium is due to the presence of golf or non-golf-related benefits golf courses provide such as large open spaces free of noise and congestion. Using a difference-in-difference design on homes near a golf course that closed in Denver, Colorado, there is no evidence that losing a golf course results in lower sales prices for adjacent homes. Since prices do not fall when golf is taken away, the data support the hypothesis that non-golf benefits of courses command previously observed premiums.
