Multi-criteria analysis of ranking preferences on residential traits

Pair-wise comparisons assume additivity, transitivity and equal weighting of propertiesI traits. This paper explores multi-criteria treatments of pair wise comparisons in order to reveal the implicit hierarchical decision making process used by analysts who perform residential valuations. This treatment is presented as an extension of traditional grid treatments used extensively by professsional valuers.
