About

Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning are rapidly transforming the real estate finance and economics landscape. AI algorithms can analyze complex datasets from market trends and property specifics to buyer behaviors and economic indicators. Such tools offer significant benefits, including enhanced data-driven decision-making, more accurate predictive analytics, and improved operational efficiency in real estate. As AI-driven insights reshape how properties are valued, developed, and traded, understanding their impact has become a crucial frontier for research in real estate.

In light of these advances, the 2nd AI in Finance Conference will feature a dedicated AI and Real Estate program on its third day. This special program aims to bring together leading academics and practitioners to explore cutting-edge research at the intersection of AI and real estate markets. We especially encourage work that bridges methodological innovations in AI/ML with applications in real estate finance and urban economics. The AI and Real Estate program will feature a keynote address by Professor Thies Lindenthal (University of Cambridge) followed by an industry-academic panel, and presentations of selected papers, fostering dialogue on how advanced analytics (e.g. deep learning, natural language processing, computer vision, geospatial data) are generating new insights in property valuation, investment strategy, sustainability, urban planning, and beyond.
