Summary/Abstract: The article’s goal is to determine an impact of geospatial factors on a behaviorof residential properties purchasers in urban spaces. The behavior of real estates marketconsumers doesn’t depend mostly only on internal non-spatial factors which characterizefunctional-technical real estates features. Most of all it depends on the external geospatialfactors which describe the major asset of any real estate – its location in the spatial urbanstructure. The geostatistical analysis of Bytom city residential property was carried outto reach the article’s goal. The methods used in the article consisted of testing spatialautocorrelation (Global Moran I, General G Getis, Local G Getis) spatial interpolation,namely: Inverse Distance Weighting (IDW) interpolation, Radial Basis Functions (RBF)and Ordinary Kriging. The authors tested the impact of many geospatial factors such asthe proximity to roads, green areas, the density of the poverty, location of banks and manymore on the transaction prices of residential properties. The tools used for that were theOrdinary Least Squares (OLS) and the Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR). Thefinally constructed model consisted of such factors as the density of violence, the unemploymentdensity, the alcoholism density, the market square proximity and the location ofdead bodies.
