Abstract

Many of the current models for house price prediction focus on the house price index itself or include too few factors. In this research, however, different aspects of housing properties (bedrooms, bathrooms, grade, view, etc.) will be incorporated to generate a more accurate prediction model. Doing so not only remedies for a lack of variables in current models but also benefits the consumers by providing an accurate estimation of housing values. This paper examines the estimation methodology of a multiple linear regression model. To get the optimal prediction power and keep the model as simple as possible, different variable combinations will be tested. Through comparing different regression models and analyzing the regression results, the predictive model introduced in this paper has a high house price prediction power. This paper provides a potential solution for the prediction of the house price in the King County, Washington.
