The study should examine the timing, relationship, and magnitude of the correlation between the number of commercial real estate property sales that occur in a given amount of time and the level of inflation-adjusted commercial real estate appreciation.
The study seeks to:
(1) Find the strongest correlations between property sales and appreciation for various time lags;
(2) Establish the relationship between property sales and appreciation; and
(3) Estimate values of changes in appreciation for stipulated time periods given a 10.0% change in property sales.
