To evaluate the results, the calculation of the coefficients for the variables "surface area
squared" and "number of bathrooms squared", were based on the procedure carried out by
Lassibille (1994, p.115). On the other hand, the impact of dummy variables on housing prices
was calculated by applying the methodology of Halvorsen and Palmquist (1980). Once these
procedures were carried out, Table 3 shows the relevance of each variable for the estimated
