According to statistical analysis, it is concluded that some of the explanatory variables have had linear and some of them have had nonparametric effect on house rents. Thus, the model has obtained as semiparametric adittive regression model that contain a few nonparametric components in additon to parametric linear components. It is observed that suitable semiparametric adittive regression model is significant, and given better results than parametric linear and semiparmetric models. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
