If the market price drops, that is the new market price. That's why we're waiting on the sidelines right now for condo projects so we can sell at a price that covers costs. In fact getting rid of the lower QE viewcone has allowed a fiends condo project to exits at all. I'll be keeping an eye on what they market for.

Our "market value" is artificially inflated with the limited developable lands and municipal height, zoning and other restrictions. Hence, with all these removed, competition can actually lower prices. Viewcones is one major obstacle.

However, like I said before, we missed the best time to build more, while suburb cities have been more successful in doing this. Construction costs post-Covid, mortgage rates and the dwindling economy make it harder now.
