If the absolute value of this ratio is less than one, then demand is characterized as price inelastic. Investors looking for markets that will allow for greater price increases in response to increases in demand should be looking for areas and property types with price inelastic demand.
Price Elasticity of Supply The sensitivity of quantity supplied to changes in prices. It is measured as the ratio of the percentage change in quantity supplied over the percentage change in price. If the absolute value of this ratio is less than one, then supply is characterized as price inelastic. Investors looking for markets that will allow for greater price increases in response to increases in demand should be looking for areas and property types with price inelastic supply.
