The Henley Business School is often identified with cutting edge forecasts - but now it has revealed the history of what might just be this country’s first housing bubble.
A survey looking at land prices and rents in medieval England between 1200 and 1550 reveals that trading in property was a significant business for medieval investors.
‘The First Real Estate Bubble: Land Prices and Rents in Medieval England c.1200-1550’ is the result of three years of research by Professor Adrian Bell, Professor Chris Brooks and Dr Helen Killick at Henley; their work is based on a database featuring nearly 100,000 records of buyers and sellers.
