We find that in contrast to spillovers from the common factor of housing returns to housing sentiment and GDP, reverse spillovers are relatively weak. This suggests that, while a shock to housing prices is likely to have a significant impact on housing sentiment and the economy, a purely exogenous shock to housing sentiment may in itself have little impact on housing returns and volatility.8 pagesen© 2021 Elsevier Inc.
