Watch communities where demand has a reason
A community becomes worth watching when demand is connected to something durable: commute access, schools, lifestyle, lake access, walkability, renovation activity, supply limits, or relative value compared with nearby alternatives.
Separate popularity from opportunity
A popular community is not always an opportunity. Buyers should compare budget, property condition, competing offers, and the gap between desired neighbourhoods and substitutes nearby.

|---|---|---|
