This paper studies the Barcelonese rental real estate market by exploiting both geolocation services and user-generated public data. This allows for the creation of a dataset which is later analysed using kernel smoothing methods. The key ndings are that (i) rent prices are approximately log-normally distributed, that (ii) rent prices are lower in areas further away from the city centre, and that (iii) the previous point has to be complemented with a geospatial analysis that accounts for spatial heterogeneity.application/pdfengThis work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International LicenseTreball de fi de grau – Curs 2020-2021Econometriainfo:eu-repo/semantics/bachelorThesisKernel smoothingUser dataHousing marketsinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
