The study investigates how risk aversion influences the behavior of home buyers and highlights the disparities between high-income and low-income buyers. The findings reveal that high-income home buyers exhibit a risk aversion parameter that ranges from 1.74 to 1.99, while low-income home buyers have a parameter that ranges from 0.60 to 0.62, thus indicating different levels of risk tolerance and decision-making patterns among the income groups. These findings suggest that low-income home buyers are more likely to endure unfavorable situations or avoid making changes in periods of declining house prices than high-income home buyers. This behavior aligns with the concept of passive coping, where low-income home buyers choose to endure unfavorable situations rather than making changes because they fear the negative outcomes that may arise from taking a different course of action. They might worry that if they abandon the contract, they will miss out on the opportunity to own a home, live in a desirable neighborhood, or secure a specific property. This fear of potential losses leads them to choose passive coping, where they endure the current situation rather than making changes that could involve risks or uncertainties.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><!-- PDF DownloadLink --><\/p><p class=\"download\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gssinst.org\/irer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/vol26-no4_2-Risk_Aversion_Lee-et-al.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>View PDF -https:\/\/doi.org\/10.53383\/100371<\/strong><\/a><\/p><div class=\"empty\">\u00a0<\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div><p class=\"abstract_label\">Keywords<\/p><p>Housing, Risk aversion<\/p><\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Article The Impact of Commitment on Pending Home Sales in Entrapping Situations Author Start Page \/ End Page Volume Issue&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"article-template.php","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[265,264],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gssinst.org\/irer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3996"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gssinst.org\/irer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gssinst.org\/irer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gssinst.org\/irer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gssinst.org\/irer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3996"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/www.gssinst.org\/irer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3996\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4641,"href":"https:\/\/www.gssinst.org\/irer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3996\/revisions\/4641"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gssinst.org\/irer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3996"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gssinst.org\/irer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3996"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gssinst.org\/irer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3996"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
