Abstract
In the present paper, an early warning system (EWS) for the Korean housing market is constructed. The housing market pressure index is defined as the maximum value of the rates of changes in sales and rental price indexes of the nation and of a specific area. The critical value of HMPI is determined using its mean and standard deviation. With the signal approach model, we find 15 effective leading indicators. Furthermore, the explanatory power of the housing market crisis composite index determined using the leading indicators is satisfactory. Hence, the model developed in the current paper can be used as the EWS of the Korean housing market.
