Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Property-related activities are highly diverse and involve, in addition to property management, planning, financing and construction activities, valuation, facilities management, and consultation or brokerage services. The real estate sector has a higher economic importance than other sectors such as the automotive industry and the healthcare sector. It makes a major contribution to GDP in the European Union and provides prosperity and jobs. Real estate represents the majority of the existing real capital and is also particularly relevant because of its additional function as a provision for old age and protection against inflation (European Real Estate Forum, 2022).
According to Eurostat, the real estate activities sector accounted for 1.9 % of total employment in the EU in 2019, and the real estate activities sector accounted for 5.7 % of the total number of enterprises in the EU in 2019 (Eurostat, May 2022).
Housing is a key input in economic, social, and civic development. Many housing-related activities are known to contribute directly to achieving broader socio-economic development goals. Housing investment remains valuable and is a major economic driver in both developed and developing countries.
This Special Issue aims to publish high-quality research papers on the inter-disciplinary field of Computational Applications in Housing and Real Estate.
We look forward to receiving your papers!
Dr. Natalija Lepkova
Guest Editor
