Strategic carrying burn & market clearing simulation for stagnant condo inventory

Condominium inventory experiences non-linear friction when interest rates and mandatory HOA reserves rise simultaneously. Unlike single-family homes, buyers scrutinize HOA financial health, deferred maintenance reserves, and looming special assessments.
Holding out for an unrealistic top-of-market list price while inventory sits for 140+ days often yields less net equity than taking an immediate, deliberate 5% to 9% price trim that attracts liquid buyers and caps monthly carrying burn.
