As mentioned, while the Corona Virus is the primary news with a lot of unknowns around it, service sector workers will be effected, but I think it will bounce back once people are free to leave their houses, and actually booming for a few weeks after lockdowns are relaxed.  

Other sectors of real estate have problems too. 

Also, take a look at your tenant demographic and evaluate what industry they're in -- what is the likelihood of an increased vacancy or leasing period if your target residents are employed in sectors most likely to see hourly cuts?  

We have several C class apartments and most of our tenants work in the service sectors.

Short term rentals however was already a high risk investing method with municipal risk being a huge challenge in the sector. 

I am not a financial advisor but if I were in a similar situation I would definitely be forging ahead with dollar cost averaging, possibly diversifying outside of REITs as well with other sectors being hit harder recently. 

The “crisis” here will be over in 1-2 months, some lingering effects in certain sectors.....but essentially back to normal. 

@Adam Tafel The Fed printing funny-money and spilling it into useless sectors of the economy leads to severe inflation or hyperinflation.

You don't want to be saturated in any one sector or investment.

or just move forward as this sector may still hold strong.
