Should you buy a property now, or wait until interest rates come down? It sounds like a simple question. The answer might surprise you. 

Junge Ma, Senior Research Analyst at InvestorKit, built a real model comparing two scenarios: buying now with negative cashflow, versus waiting two years for lower rates and better cashflow. Same market conditions, same assumptions where she tracks the actual wealth outcome five years out.

She also breaks down what to do if your borrowing capacity doesn't stretch to your ideal market right now, including a look at townhouses as a stepping-stone strategy.

This is a must-watch for anyone stuck between buying now or holding off for a "better" moment.
