Buy the Dip

Any great investor knows the rule: you buy on the dip. When an asset with strong fundamentals takes a temporary hit, when supply is limited and long-term demand is solid, you buy. That’s how real wealth is built.

So why do so many people forget this when it comes to real estate?

This morning, while training virtually with my trainer in Miami, he asked if I was getting a lot of calls from clients looking to sell in Manhattan. His local papers were predicting a “New York exodus.”

I had to laugh. I’ve seen this play before. When one market’s “hot” and another’s “cold,” there’s usually a PR campaign behind it. In this case, a Miami developer with excess, overpriced inventory is trying to move product. It’s marketing, not market reality.

Here’s what’s actually happening:

Miami: high inventory, inflated pricing.

Manhattan: limited supply, pricing that’s finally reasonable.

That’s the setup smart investors wait for.

I asked my trainer (who also trades stocks):

“If a one-bedroom sold for $2M in 2021 and now trades 30% lower, would you buy it?”
He said, “Of course.”

That’s the investor mindset. Whether it’s stocks or condos, value is value.

The Smart Money Is Moving

It’s no coincidence I just had one of my busiest weeks of 2025. Buyers aren’t fleeing New York; they’re doubling down. CEOs, international investors, and founders who know today’s dip is tomorrow’s gain.

They’re buying the dip.
They’re betting on New York.
They’re the next generation shaping their future.

Markets are cyclical. Fear and opportunity always coexist. The winners aren’t the ones following headlines. They’re the ones who recognize value when others hesitate.

In Manhattan, opportunity is knocking. Will you buy the dip?

DM me, I’ll show you what opportunity actually looks like.

And yes, the apartment I’m standing in is one of those opportunities.
