Housing dynamics: An urban approach (2014, background): “Many housing demand elasticity estimates are around one (or slightly below, in absolute value; see, e.g. Polinsky and Ellwood, 1979 or Saiz, 2003), and there is a wide range in the literature, so we experiment with a range from 0 to 2.”

Economic Impacts of Immigration: A Survey (2011, background): “Saiz (2003, 2007) showed that US housing prices rise with immigration at the city level.”
Immigration and the Neighborhood (2006, unknown): “While previous research ( Saiz 2003, 2007; Ottaviano and Peri 2006 shows that metropolitan areas with major immigration inflows have tended to experience faster housing valuation growth on average, we do not know much about the impact of immigration on local residential dynamics.”
