About this journal

Aims and scope

The Journal of Real Estate Research (JRER) is a publication of the American Real Estate Society (ARES). The Journal's objective is to investigate and expand the frontiers of knowledge that cover business applications through scholarly real estate research. JRER is committed to publishing the highest quality analytical, empirical, and clinical research useful to business decision-makers in the fields of real estate development, economics, finance, investment, law, management, marketing, secondary markets, and valuation.

Theoretical papers without testable or policy implications are discouraged. Data used in empirical research must be thoroughly documented and sufficient details of computations and methodologies must be provided to allow duplication. Authors are encouraged to provide data (at a reasonable cost) for replication purpose should such a request arise.

The Editorial Board of JRER is interested in broadening the reach of scholarly real estate research and is willing to work with any potential author who is developing new and exciting ideas.

Peer Review Policy: All articles submitted to this journal undergo a “double-anonymous” peer review by two to three referees after initial screening by the editor or designate.
