In my academic research I focus on the financial economics of relate to real estate markets. Typically, I opt for empirical studies in which the facts are leading.

At the moment I focus my attention of three main topics:

• Risk and return of real estate investments
• Sustainability in the real estate market
• Financial literacy of decision makers
