When I am buying a stock I'm actually paying someone money who will exchange his stock for my money. And If I want to sell the stock someone on the other end has to be willing to buy it from me at an agreed price.

What happens if I can't find any buyers to sell my stock to?

Lets now apply this concept to the housing market. What happens if real estate investors can't find anyone to sell their excessively overvalued properties?

It's the old "pretend I'm stupid" ploy ...
>excessively overvalued
followed by the "assume my conclusion so I look smart" ploy.

>It depends on the specs of your order: If you didn't specify a price, someone will probably buy it for much less than you think it's worth. If you did, your order will sit unfilled until someone feels like paying your price.
Which may be never.

You lower your bid until you find buyers.

When you're buing or selling there are many options to pick.
You can say different things to your broker e.g :
Buy stock for no higher than 100$ wait one day, than cancel.
Or
Buy a stock for whatever price. They will give you the best available offer from the selling side.

There are many more options. On popular stocks you will always have many awaiting orders that are to be fullfiled within some limit. If you cannot buy at 100 there is probably someone waiting to sell for 100.5 . So wait or agree on that price.

People create liquidity by offering to sell the stock for higher than its worth and to buy it for less than its worth.

real estate investors will usually improve the house, which in turn lets them upgrade and retain the house value. For houses that have reached their peak for the area they will be forced to offer a lower price or risk having to repay time sensitive loans. Some people can afford this and will hold out, especially those who flip houses with large amounts of capital as they only need to worry about repairs and taxes.

You lower your price until someone is willing to pay. Why the fuck do you think the price of ANYTHING rises and falls? Magic?

if a product is overvalued, banks will create market incentive by way of artificially low interest rates
