In Wichita Falls, Texas, a new real estate company was established. In order to become acquainted with the local residential market, the company requires a statistical analysis of the determinants that are likely to influence the price per square foot of single family homes in this area. For this purpose a consultant was commissioned. In order to investigate the information required by the real estate company, the relevant data was gathered from realtor.com, a real estate agent.
In order to conduct the analysis, at first the necessary data has to be collected. For this pur-pose a sample of fifty houses will be collected. The consultant decides to investigate nine variables that are likely to be factors in determining the asked price per square foot. Based on this data collection, a descriptive analysis will be conducted where the variables will be analyzed for their means, medians, standard deviations, as well as for their minimum and maximum values. The next step consists of conducting a correlation analysis where the relations between the variables will be investigated. Afterwards, a regression analysis will be conducted in order to find out whether the independent variables can explain the dependent variable. Finally, the findings will be summarized in a conclusion.

Zusammenfassung der Kapitel (Chapter Summaries)
1 Introduction: This chapter introduces the research project undertaken for a new real estate company in Wichita Falls, Texas. The goal is to statistically analyze factors influencing the price per square foot of single-family homes. The methodology involves collecting data from realtor.com, analyzing a sample of fifty houses across nine variables, and conducting descriptive, correlation, and regression analyses. The chapter clearly outlines the steps involved in the research process, from data collection to final conclusions.
2 Statistical Analysis: This chapter delves into the statistical methods used to analyze the data. It begins by defining the dependent variable (price per square foot) and several independent variables (e.g., age of the house, likely representing factors such as dilapidation and modern building features affecting energy efficiency and structural integrity). The chapter details the plan to perform descriptive statistics (mean, median, standard deviation, minimum, maximum) to understand the distribution of the variables. Further analysis will involve correlation analysis to explore relationships between variables and regression analysis to model the impact of the independent variables on the price per square foot. This chapter lays the groundwork for the subsequent quantitative analyses.
