Seven years ago, his grandparents gave him a significant cash gift following his college graduation. He deposited it into a segregated fund that invests in the natural resources sector. However, real estate prices are rapidly increasing. Eric is concerned that if he does not buy a place in the next three to five years, it might become altogether unaffordable. In addition, the shares of the segregated fund he holds have seen a sharp drop in market value two years ago and they have not recovered yet.
