This paper aims to analyze the journal's impact using bibliometric analysis from 1998 to 2017 on 380 publications. Design/methodology/approach The network analysis is performed using VOSviewer software and Biblioshiny R studio. The mapping presents citation structures, coauthorship patterns, bibliographic coupling and other network analyses. Findings The results show that the journal is growing in terms of citations and impact. The findings document various mapping criteria and their summaries. Seven major clusters are identified to delineate the underlying themes of publications in JCRE. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this paper offers the original and first bibliometric analysis of the journal’s impact over the first two decades. The findings are relevant for researchers and real estate stakeholders.

“…This software was preferred over others because it displays maps and clusters in various ways and has multiple functions and features to handle and display data satisfactorily [43]. Moreover, it has been used to identify evolution trends in similar real estate research [17,45].…”

“…Three major VOSviewer analytical tools were utilised in analysing the literature identified. The outputs were: bibliographic coupling of sources, co-authorship analysis of countries and source, and keyword co-occurrence network analysis, as conducted by Maggon [45]. Bibliographic coupling is a technique used to identify and quantify the thematic relationship between documents if they share a cited reference, that is, the similarity between documents based on the citing papers [31].…”

“…Therefore, the bibliometric analysis was completed using VOSviewer to visualise co-authorship networks, citations, bibliographic coupling, and other networks, as was conducted by Maggon [45] in their mapping of research in a real estate journal and other mapping studies [32,51].…”
