What happens if you start at the 'wrong' time?

I ran across a great podcast from ICOR with an interview of someone who I think highly of, and respect his experience and insights.  Here's the summary:

"What happens when you start investing in real estate right before the bubble was about to burst? A recent episode of the ICOR Podcast talks with Clint Macklin who tried to become a Real Estate investor back in the hay day of 2007 and 2008 but quickly realized just how hard the business can be (ups, downs, you name it). Now, after many years, a drive to succeed, and working with a mentor, Clint has been involved with several flips and now has a portfolio of properties in Cleveland, Ohio."

There's never a wrong time...just a wrong deal.
