It is with great pleasure that I share the first story in today's newsletter. Our newest research ranking — 35th amongst U.S. business schools — reflects the excellence of the Bauer research enterprise. Our second story is a fine example of the rigorous, yet practical research, our faculty publish in top journals. This research forthcoming in the Journal of Finance provides insight into how prospective home buyers online search behavior is influenced by price changes in their zip code. Happy Reading!

Bauer Research Compares Homebuyers' Online Search with Housing Pricing Assistant Professor of Finance Antonio Gargano and two co-authors (Assistant Professors Marco Giacoletti and Elvis Jarnecic) used data from an Australian property website to discern how the search behavior of prospective homebuyers responds to price changes in their zip code. The researchers also track what other experiences influence online search behavior, and measure the effect of that behavior on sales prices and housing inventory. | |
