With London Ontario house prices increasing over the past few months, I have heard the following from buyers and Realtors.

• “There is nothing I can do about it.”
• “That’s just the way the real estate market is right now.”

• “It is what it is.”

• “I am not going to get involved in multiple offers.”

  Really? So, you are just going to sit there and take it?

    Learned helplessness is a condition in which buyers adapt to a scarcity mindset,  with the fear of loss being huge and instant gratification a must & not thinking of the second and third consequences of overpaying for a home in London, Ontario and feeling that there is nothing they can do about it.
