These include traditional ideas about site selection and building design, as well as newer beliefs about the \u201cluckiness\u201d of certain numbers. Focusing on an area with a relatively high percentage of Chinese households in Auckland, New Zealand, this paper uses hedonic price analysis to investigate whether house values are affected by lucky and unlucky numbers. Sales transactions for 1989 to 1996 are used in this analysis. The results demonstrate that lucky house numbers are capitalized into house values.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><!-- PDF DownloadLink --><\/p><p class=\"download\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gssinst.org\/irer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1999-Vol-2-No-1-Hedonic-Prices.pdf\"><strong>View PDF -https:\/\/doi.org\/10.53383\/100013<\/strong><\/a><\/p><div class=\"empty\">\u00a0<\/div><p><a class=\"backpage\">Back to Previous Page<\/a><\/p><\/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":"<div>\n<p class=\"title_label_large\">Author<\/p>\n<p class=\"title_label_large\">Start Page \/ End Page<\/p>\n<p class=\"title_label\">Volume<\/p>\n<p class=\"title_label\">Issue Number<\/p>\n<p class=\"title_label\">Year<\/p>\n<p class=\"title_label_large\">Publication<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<!-- Author \/ StartEndPage \/ Volume \/ IssueNumber \/ Year \/ Publication --><\/p>\n<p class=\"title_text_large\">Steven C.
