2008 vs 2020 - apply lessons learned?

2008 and 2020 are both years with unprecedented events that impact the economy, and hence real estate.

History repeats itself, so are some lessons learned.

For real estate investors who have lived through 2008, my questions are:

1. What have you learned from 2008 experience?

2. Looking back at 2008, what do you wish that you've done differently?

3. How are you applying what you've learned from 2008 to 2020? And how is 2020 different 2008 in your eyes?
