A New Spatial Hedonic Equilibrium in the Emerging Work-from-Home Economy?
研究了居家办公对住房市场的影响，发现它压低高生产率城市的房价和租金，并弱化城市内部靠近好工作的房价溢价。
This paper studies the impacts of work from home (WFH) in the housing market from both intercity and intracity perspectives. Our results confirm the theoretical prediction that WFH puts downward pressure on housing prices and rents in high-productivity counties, a result of workers starting to relocate to cheaper metro areas during the pandemic without forsaking their desirable jobs. We also show that WFH tends to flatten intracity house-price gradients, weakening the price premium associated with good job access.
