INSIGHT

500k Is Not What It Used To Be

  • The $500k entry now buys much lower quality than before and the old rules no longer apply.
  • Dawn Fouhy says investors must reset expectations and accept different cycles and trade-offs.
ADVICE

Adapt Strategy To New Market Dynamics

  • Do adjust your strategy: build portfolios differently now that yields are lower and prices higher.
  • Dawn recommends using changing policy (rate cuts, FHB incentives) and timing to supercharge growth.
ADVICE

Act Early — Data Lags Price Moves

  • Do expect faster selling and low stock: many areas show one to three weeks to sell.
  • Dawn says act early because data lags and being late costs you missed gains.
