Real estate evaluation model based on the method of least squares

Abstract

New way of estimating of real estate market value, based on the least squares method, was presented in the article. Testing of applying same ideas of statistical approach into the routine way of appraisal of particular immovable estate shown that the proposed way of valuation is under some circumstances as good as the “in-pairs comparing” method, the most universal one from among methods of comparing approach. Although “in-pairs comparing” method is regarded as the most accurate one, conducted experiments clearly shown its own, inherent limits, that radically restrict the field of its use.
