The Year 2025: A Masterclass in Waiting
Let us take a moment for 2025.
Not because it was a bad year.
But because some people spent the entire year watching it happen.
Watching prices.
Watching announcements.
Watching other people buy.
And of course, waiting.
Waiting for the dip.
Waiting for the “right moment.”
Waiting for that mythical email titled: Perfect Deal, Zero Risk, Unlimited Upside.
Spoiler alert: it never arrived.
The Fine Art of Doing Nothing (Expert Level)
2025 was not short on opportunities.
It was short on patience for hesitation.
While some investors signed contracts, others perfected their research:
• One more comparison
• One more WhatsApp voice note
• One more “let’s see what happens after summer”
Summer passed.
So did autumn.
Now December is waving goodbye.
The market did not wait.
Prices in 2025 Did Not Ask for Permission
Here is the rude part.
Prices did not pause to check who was “still deciding.”
They moved.
They adjusted.
They climbed quietly.
Meanwhile, the waiting club celebrated small wins:
“Good thing I didn’t rush.”
“Let’s see what 2026 brings.”
Yes. Let’s see.
2026 Is Not Coming Gently
If 2025 was polite, 2026 is direct.
New launches are priced with confidence.
Resale owners are no longer flexible.
Developers are less emotional, more strategic.
And the same people who waited in 2025 are now saying:
“I should have bought last year.”
Correct.
You should have.
The Most Expensive Decision Is Still Waiting
Waiting feels safe.
Waiting feels responsible.
Waiting feels intelligent.
Until you do the math.
The real cost of waiting is not money spent.
It is money never made.
Rental income missed.
Capital growth ignored.
Entry prices that no longer exist.
Regret does not come with a payment plan.
Act Fast or Watch Again
2026 does not reward spectators.
It rewards decisiveness.
This is not about rushing blindly.
It is about understanding that the market does not pause for comfort.
You can either:
• Enter the market
• Or enter the Museum of “I Almost Bought”
And that exhibit is already full.
Because 2025 is leaving.
2026 is approaching.
And waiting has officially become the most expensive strategy in real estate.
