Section 1

Base case is not a strategy

Serious investors model variance, not certainty. Stress-testing rent compression, slower absorption, and wider resale spreads helps define resilient position sizing.

Section 2

How to build useful scenarios

Use mild, base, and adverse cases with explicit assumptions for vacancy, pricing, and time-to-exit. Scenario clarity improves decision quality more than point forecasts.

Section 3

Risk buffers that preserve optionality

Liquidity reserve planning, disciplined leverage, and conservative entry pricing create room to hold or exit rationally when conditions change.
