Buyers in commercial real estate markets often pay different prices for comparable properties. We document that distant commercial real estate buyers pay, on average, a premium relative to local buyers, controlling for individual property characteristics as well as time fixed-effects.

The independent verification and validation (IV&V) of simulation models is largely restricted to applications in the military and public policy domains. There is little evidence of IV&V for industrial simulation models. This is largely because industrial simulations are normally of a much smaller scale and do not warrant a full IV&V. A procedure for IV&V of industrial simulation models is descr...
