How to avoid the common mistakes of Property owners and buyers?

The above is one of the most common mistakes which I have witnessed in my real estate career.  Most people follow the herd mentality and rush to buy when everyone is buying. On the opposite, when market is quiet, people then to hold back.
 
“Let’s wait for the market to drop further before we decide to go in.” Does this sound familiar to you? Do we buy the property based on emotion or logic?
 
As for me, I always look at property based on research instead of hearing from others. I observe the facts and figures before making any decision. I am sure that you agree with me too. Property purchase is a big-ticket item, we should never rely on emotion buying.
 
Today’s market has changed. Despite the current endemic situation, prices of properties in Singapore are still very resilient. Why is it so? Does this means good or bad if you are reading this article now?

Today, they need to pay an average of $2 million dollar for the same unit.
