SUMMARY:Big Data and the Real Estate Cycle: How new data and analytics are transforming Real Estate finance
DESCRIPTION:Motivation \nThe Latin American Real Estate Society (LARES) is an academic organization extended to the market\, aimed at encouraging the development of diverse studies within the field of Real Estate\, including urban and regional studies\, cities\, urbanization\, and major trends and disruptions that reshape human space. \nIn 2026\, the 25th International LARES Conference will take place in the city of São Paulo\, on November 04th and 05th\, serving as an important space for researchers\, professionals\, and academics to meet and discuss the impacts and future projections for Real Estate in light of current circumstances in Brazil and around the world. The event this year highlights the interactions between Technology\, Data and Real Estate. \nThe growing availability of large-scale digital datasets is transforming the way researchers and practitioners analyze real estate markets and its cycles. Transaction-level records\, satellite imagery\, geospatial data\, large administrative datasets\, and platform-generated data are creating unprecedented opportunities to study real estate with greater temporal and spatial precision. \nAt the same time\, the real estate sector is undergoing major structural changes driven by financial innovation\, technological platforms\, and new sources of market information. Proptech companies\, financial institutions\, and data analytics firms are increasingly relying on advanced quantitative tools to understand housing demand\, price dynamics\, credit conditions\, and investment opportunities. \nThese developments create an important opportunity for dialogue between academia and industry. While researchers are developing new methods to study real estate markets\, private-sector actors are building data infrastructures that generate new empirical possibilities. Bringing together scholars\, industry practitioners\, and young researchers can help foster collaborations that advance both scientific knowledge and market understanding. \nThe Young Scholars Initiative (YSI) of the Institute for New Economic Thinking promotes such exchanges by creating spaces where early-career researchers can interact with leading scholars and practitioners. In this context\, the proposed YSI@LARES workshop\, organized in conjunction with the annual conference of the Latin American Real Estate Society\, aims to explore how new data sources and analytical tools are reshaping the study of real estate finance and housing markets. \nThe workshop will be held as a full-day event on November 03\, ahead of the LARES conference\, bringing together graduate students\, early-career researchers\, academic experts\, and professionals from the real estate industry. \nObjectives \nThe workshop aims to achieve three main objectives. \nFirst\, it seeks to advance methodological discussions on the use of big data in real estate research. The increasing availability of large administrative datasets\, platform-generated data\, and geospatial information is creating new possibilities for analyzing housing markets\, credit dynamics\, and real estate cycles. The workshop will provide a space for discussing these methodological frontiers. \nSecond\, the event aims to bridge academic research and industry practice. Real estate firms\, proptech companies\, and financial institutions increasingly rely on data-driven tools to monitor market dynamics. By bringing practitioners and researchers together\, the workshop will encourage knowledge exchange and identify new avenues for collaboration. \nThird\, the workshop intends to support the development of young scholars working on real estate\, urban and regional economics\, urban and regional planning\, urbanism\, civil engineering\, and related disciplines. Through mentorship sessions and research presentations\, early-career participants will have the opportunity to receive feedback on their work and expand their professional networks. \nWorkshop Themes for Call for Papers (CfP) \nPossible themes for paper submissions include: \n\nNew data sources for real estate market analysis\nBig data and methods in real estate modeling\nReal estate platforms and market transparency\nCredit markets and real estate cycles\nSpatial analysis and urban housing dynamics\nPrivate equity\, Real estate investment and financialization\nData-driven approaches to housing policy and affordability\nData for Real Estate Investment Analysis\nMarket Intelligence for Real Estate\nArtificial Intelligence (IA) in Real Estate\n\nBy focusing on these topics\, the workshop will highlight how new forms of data and analytical tools are changing both academic research and industry practice in real estate markets. \nParticipants and Mentors \nThe workshop will bring together academic researchers and professionals from the real estate and financial sectors. \nIndustry mentors will share their experiences in building data-driven approaches to real estate markets and finance. Potential participants include professionals from leading firms and institutions such as: \n\nRamon Azevedo\, Co-Founder e CEO da Morada.Ai\n\nAcademic mentors will provide methodological guidance and research feedback to workshop participants. Academic mentors include: \n\nRicardo Enrique Truffello Robledo\, Director of the Observatory of Cities at the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile\nJoão Meyer\, FAU/USP and LARES (Confirmed)\nRenan P. Almeida\, Cedeplar/UFMG and LARES (Confirmed)\n\nBesides paper presentations by young scholars\, the workshop proposes lectures by the special guests\, Ramon Azevedo and Prof. Ricardo Truffello. \nStructure of the Workshop \nThe workshop will take place over one full day and combine lectures and research presentations. \nThe morning session will begin with an opening panel session discussing the role of new data sources in real estate finance and housing market analysis\, by Ramon Azevedo (Morada.AI) and Prof. Ricardo Truffello (PUC-Chile). \nThe workshop will conclude with research presentations by young scholars\, who will present ongoing projects related to the topics covered by the workshop. Each presentation will receive feedback from academic mentors and practitioners. \nOrganizers \nItalo Spinelli\, FIEMG and Cedeplar/UFMG \nVeruska Bichuette\, FAU/USP \nGlaucy Herdy\, FAU/USP \nWorking Groups \nUrban and Regional Economics \nComplexity Economics \n
