Regional vs. National Housing Price Comparison Report 1 Report: Regional vs. National Housing Price Comparison Tiarre Crawford Southern New Hampshire University
Regional vs. National Housing Price Comparison Report 2 Introduction Region : I have been selected to represent the Mid-Atlantic real estate company. Purpose : I have been hired to determine if the housing prices in the Mid- Atlantic are lower than the national market average. So, the purpose of my report would be to determine the relationship between housing prices and housing square footage in my region by using a sample size of 500 randomly selected home listings to then compare it with the national markets’ housing prices and housing square footage. I will use the data I collect to determine if my hypothesis is indeed true or indeed not true. Also, to decide the range of values of square footage for homes in my regional market.

Dev -352.42 Standard erro -15.76089599 Sample: The above chart is a depiction of my 500 randomly sampled home listings from my Mid – Atlantic region. In this chart, you can see the states and counties from which the data are taken from. There is also a representation of average housing listing prices as well as average square footage and cost per square footage. Showing the mean, median, standard deviation, and standard error for both Mid-Atlantic and National markets expressing the differences between the two. Questions and type of test: The first question I need to address would be rather the average housing prices in the Mid- Atlantic Market are lower than those of the National Market. To find a conclusion for this hypothesis I will conduct a 1-Tailed Test. The next question I tend to find a solution to is whether the square footage for homes in the Mid-Atlantic displays any differences from the average square footage for homes in the National market in which I will conduct a 2-Tailed Test. I will use confidence intervals and estimation from findings to compare and determine if my initial hypothesis stands correct or if the alternative hypothesis determines a different outcome. For these two tests I will use a significance level of a=.05
