The risks in real estate

Jonathan Brown

hey guys

I am trying to fully understand the risks associated with real estate when the economy and the potential collapse of real estate is concerned. I understand how money can be lost in a deal due to lack of due diligence or bad analysis but is it just that there is collapse of the industry and loans are called due and people go bankrupt? I ask this because this is what I assume but why do you see seasoned investors buying house after  house by borrowing money and not fear loans being due, is there something they are doing that protects them? This was a question I always had but know I am not shying away just want to understand what fully happens in a collapse and how investors protect themselves
