I would suggest your student narrow the topic somewhat - maybe to "factors affecting housing prices in resort island locations"

By looking at islands, the availible land tend to be constrained. By looking at resort locations, the industry types are fewer and more comparable - you don't have an auto plant closing or a dot com driving up prices.

This means more useful conclusions, and maybe even a chance of being hired by a land development company or consultancy.

Field work will be required, and supervison of much of that field work also.

Prehaps memebers of this thread can suggest appropriate islands to study. Ibiza, Hawaii, Phuket, Trinidad come to mind.

Now about getting funding for the field work...
