Required information has been obtained from studying related documents gathered from Hamedan region one municipality as well web sites, property databases, field studies, and sampling from 230 cases in the study region analyzed, using SPSS and regression model. Results revealed that transferring excess density with a present pattern increases the average city tax share in new residential production prices by 8%.
