A parcel for which the predicted value with redevelopment is high relative to the value without redevelopment is likely to be redeveloped. The standard two step procedure has been utilized to avoid the problems associated with sample selection bias that may be present in the estimation of such a model.","The empirical results support the hypothesis that land is redeveloped when its value in the redeveloped state is high relative to its value in the current use. In both the commercial and industrial cases, the value of a developed parcel falls as distance to the CBD increases, while the effect of distance on the value of a redeveloped industrial parcel is insignificant. A southern regional location substantially reduces the value of parcel relative to a northern location. An increase in the capital intensity of a parcel leads to an increase in the unit price of a parcel and to a decline in the probability of redevelopment. The estimated coefficient on the natural logarithm of lot area is consistently estimated to be less than one in the unconstrained models. This result indicates that the relationship between the value of parcel and its lot area is concave, not proportional. Parcels with larger lot areas have greater probabilities of being redeveloped. Sample selection bias is prevalent in the commercial models, but does not play a significant role in the industrial models.","Made available in DSpace on 2014-12-17T22:26:00Z (GMT).
