Like anything else, real estate has its share of myths. These myths usually arise due to greed or because of the bragging rights of people who have achieved some success with property, in the property investment market. They always involve stories of enormous fortunes made through property.

Another myth is if you don’t buy now you will miss out because the prices will never be cheaper. Markets go up and down according to the cycle. At certain times prices will be lower, depending on the timing as per the investment clock. Real estate prices do not always rise. In many cases real estate values go down.
There is a standard saying that if there is a chance of a capital gain in property then there is also the chance of a capital loss.
