Real Estate Services
Real Estate Services (leases, base price $2,200) is leasing and brokerage activity: output of real estate firms and a diffuse demand across every revenue-generating sector.
Market behaviour#
Supply for Real Estate Services comes from real plant capacity: owned sectors produce up to what their capacity can make, sell into the clearing market, and only sold units count toward the D/S ratio and the price below. A sector that has not finished building, or that is mothballed, contributes nothing here even if its nameplate revenue implies it should. See Running a Corporation under the Plants System for how capacity is built and sold.
Prices blend 50% global + 50% national (country-aggregate): state-level S/D is meaningless because this market is driven by nationwide budgets, campaigns, or bond issuance rather than one state's local balance, drifting toward equilibrium at 6% per turn (95% closed in one game year). Raw D/S remains visible for diagnosis; price and margin math use the same raw ratio up to 3x, then a softened effective pressure tail beyond that. The national leg uses country-aggregate S/D with a 500-unit stabilizer on each side.
The price shown here does two jobs. It sets sector profit margins, computed separately at three tiers (global, national, local/state), then blended at 50/25/25 by default, with tariff pressure shifting weight from the global leg to the national leg (local stays fixed at 25%). It also scales sector revenue directly through price realization: a producer's realized revenue moves with the lagged price of what it sells (shortage rewards sellers with more top-line revenue, not just margin points; a glut bleeds revenue even at a tolerable margin). See Commodities for the full pricing mechanics, price realization, and margin formula.
