This book takes a behavioural approach to examine six important housing questions: tenure decision, gentrification, place attachment, housing bubbles, housing wealth, and residential satisfaction.Using experimental and field data, the book demonstrates the effects of six behavioural biases and heuristics (i.e., anchoring and reference dependence, loss aversion, mental accounting, endowment effect, herd behaviours, and social comparison) on these housing decisions. The first part of the book introduces the questions and provides a behavioural science toolbox before the second part adopts a real-world case study approach. Real data sets and suggested answers are provided, and the cases come from the UK, USA, and China. Background information is given in each case to facilitate the understanding of the case data and question, as well as the discussions on the results. This book is ideal supplementary reading on a variety of courses such as housing studies, economics, real estate, research methods, and for students and academics who are interested in the application of behavioural science in housing decisions.

This book examines the evolution of China’s rural land system through an integrated lens of institutional and behavioural economics. It traces seventy years of reform, from collective farming to market-oriented land transfers, to explain how central policy, local implementation and farmers’ responses interact to shape institutional change. Moving beyond standard accounts focused on property rights and transaction costs, the book introduces a dynamic framework based on Prospect Theory, incorporating cognitive biases, social norms and bounded rationality. Drawing on two large-scale rural household surveys, the book combines empirical analysis with historical case studies to explore how reforms were received, adapted and resisted.This book will benefit researchers, policymakers and graduate students interested in institutional change, land policy or Chinese rural development. It offers new tools to understand policy implementation in environments marked by uncertainty, decentralisation and informal constraints. By highlighting how behavioural factors mediate formal rules, the book provides insights that extend beyond China, informing the design of effective land and property rights reforms globally.
