2008 Crash - Buy and Hold Tips

Karen Kasjaniuk
  • Tallahassee, FL
Posted

I started investing in buy and hold real estate in 2015 and hear that 2008 was a complete disaster and that people lost everything.  I get it for the flipping side and new construction, but can folks with buy and hold properties give examples of how 2008 negatively affected them? Was it difficult to get tenants? And can you also give some tips or share what you have changed in order to be somewhat prepared for another market crash?
