Superprime ‘buy to leave’ is the cleanest case of the monetary premium in housing: apartments bought and intentionally left empty.
Generally, measuring the premium is hard. Property is a global asset class, but no two buildings are the same, and every plot sits in a local market with its own dynamics.
Here, no tenants and no cash flow. It is not an investment. Just trading an abundant asset (cash) for a scarce one (an address in a global city). Sell later for the same purchasing power or more. Or buy, borrow, die: never sell, refinance against the higher valuation for cash.
Menger would spot it immediately: a good acquired not for its use but for its expected purchasing power is money. The apartment scores well on saleability across time and badly across place, but its use as collateral makes up the difference: a bank will lend against it anywhere.
These apartments are savings accounts with front doors. The price is mostly monetary premium.
