Will A Market Crash and Rising Interest Rates Effect the Buy and Hold Investors?

[Jen Stekkinger]

It would be unwise to think the economy will remain strong while almost every credible leading economist has been shouting as loud as they can that we are on the edge of a pending economic collapse. This past week, we have seen some smaller banks collapse and larger banks like Silvergate fold. I doubt this will be the end of it. In otherwords, the signals we were warned about seem to be slowly unfolding. My question is, as a buy and hold investor, will the continued rise in interest rates and a serious economic downturn effect our future rent prices? Trying to get a feel and understanding of all possible economic impacts that would effect my future rents. I am seeing some rent prices fall dramatically in the past two months in my area. I will be honest if it keeps going this way as a new investor I could go under. Anyone have thoughts or advice?
