Moving though markets.

Housing Market Analysis is a form of demographic research that seeks to unpick relationships between the supply of properties and the demand of households. Such analysis can be used for planning for future residential development. While econometric-orientated analysis dominates much of this research, a sub-discipline also exists that recognises that there are inherent geographies within these relationships, and that these geographies can therefore be mapped. This paper details the processes behind such a venture, beginning with the creation of a geographical framework detailing housing supply for Sydney, Australia. A demand dynamic is added to this framework using analysis of intra-regional migration. With the two elements combined, key relationships are identified, which form the basis of a brief discussion on the findings as they relate to activity within Sydney's housing markets.
