"There's never been a better time to sell properties"
About this Quote
The intent is transactional optimism. It frames housing as a portfolio item rather than shelter, leaning into a mood of urgency that conveniently flatters people with property while sidestepping the moral and political mess underneath: supply shortages, affordability crises, and the widening gap between those who own and those who don’t. The subtext is political risk management. Praise the market, signal confidence, and you avoid admitting that the “better time” is partly produced by policy choices, zoning fights, and a national inability to build enough homes in the places people need to live.
Context matters because “best time to sell” often appears when prices have surged, inventory is tight, or uncertainty is looming. It can read as a dog whistle to donors and developers: the system is working - for the people who already hold the keys.
