Trump Or Hillary - Only One Answer
We have a monumental election coming up and it one of a kind to say the least. This is probably the most polarizing election I have seen in my lifetime. I do not know who is going to win and I am not here to tell you who to vote for. What I can say is that elections usually bring some volatility to the market place. The stock market will whip around and the real estate market is typically impacted. Because I don't know the outcome of the election or what will happen, there is one answer to the question 'What should I do?'. Prepare your portfolio or investing strategy with the anticipation of a dip. You do this by buying real estate or stocks cheaper than usual or possibly not buying anything at all until it all settles out. If there is a dip, that is one of the best times to buy long term rentals. Have a strategy of your own as we approach the election. Don't let the market control you as you have plenty of time to prepare.
