Based on the RWI-GEO-RED data that base on the data provided by ImmobilienScout24 hedonic housing price indices are estimated. The indices are on the grid level, district/county and municipality level. We conduct a hedonic price regression that covers characteristics of the object as well as regional fixed effects. The hedonic regression is estimated separately for houses for sale as well as apartments for rent and for sale. We also offer a combined index which combines the individual housing types into one index. There are three different specifications: First, the overall time development from 01/2008 to 11/2023 on grid level given yearly and quaterly; Second, cross-regional differences for each year separately and time development within one region from 01/2018 to 11/2023 (municipality, district and grid level); third, the time-region fixed effect between 2008 and 2023, which is used to determine the price changes for all three region types to the base year of 2008 or year-quarter 2008-Q1.
