Abstract

In a large-dimensional dynamic factor analysis of Californian house prices,
we decompose the metro-level house price variation into aggregate structural shocks and regional structural shocks. For the structural explanation of the house price variation, we estimate that aggregate supply and aggregate demand shocks play a bigger role than monetary policy shocks. However, the most important shock is the regional housing demand shock. We identify the factors by loading restrictions while the structural shocks are identified using a combination of zero and sign restrictions.
