Post: Interest Rates vs Economical Downturn

Regardless of the quality of the deal, assuming it's not a dog, the record low interest rates at this time may make the difference for one to buy now at a higher rate than to buy at a lower rate during a time when real estate values decline. 

Question is, can a  buy and hold deal (multifamily rental) right now, that is slightly profitable but close to breaking even, a deal worth locking in solely based on the available low interest rates? 

Yes, one could wait a few years for low market values but along with those likely will come higher interest rates. In the end... what is a better play?

Is it best to buy now or wait for the bubble to pop? 

Interest rates are at a record low and in many metro markets like NY, SF, LA, real estate prices are at a record HIGH. 

Is it best to buy now and take advantage of the extremely low interest rates or wait for the bubble to burst and buy real estate at a discounted price but likely at a higher interest rate?

Everyones input would be beyond appreciated. 

Thank you all.
