First, this is one of my favorite strategies.  1 - How did you arrive at the rehab cost?

If there is a market crash and all of my properties lose value....

It is trending "rough" for a neighborhood. with lots of new arrivals to the country from places that don't speak english.

I have one SFR rental, and was just curious, what happens to me if I have that and the market crashes?

I offered to help remove trash recycles compresser cardboard remove left over items from refrigerator and pantry.She never returned so I hired a friend w truck to take to town dump.I drive a suburu and didn't have space to haul garbage.I had to repair split on inside of front door punch hole in hallway that was taped over.1 cat turned into4 so I had to wipe white silkey hair out of floor ventsalso vacume litter clean out garage refrigrater wipe and remove leftover stuff in drawers.Me rental had to set off 5 bugs bombs before she could sleep in home.I was quoted$800 for assurant pest controll to travel to sheltercove.I live in a rural area by the coast.I am ordering natural pest controll products and will hire a friend to spray.Northern calif doesn't have roaches so last tenants brought in.Last tenants are threatening me w lawyer if I don't return full deposit1800.I silent 15 hours doing repairs due to damage.I also had new tenants internet installer remove part from dish to mail to last tenants.Previous female tenant said they had that set up but new tenants have dogs in back yard.Also No one contacted me from previous renters about scheduling part removal.So as a courtesy I will mail back to Vegas and keep receipt.I am getting threatening texts demanding full deposit.Also they say I owe back rent from Sept 10 to Oct 1 but they didn't return to get what was left for me to deal with.I am cleaning vacation rentals and am still getting a list of damages.I'm ordering natural German cockroachkit online will arrive 2 days shipping cost 29 plus products gonna run another100.

We contemplated selling, and should have….6 months after closing, the market crashed and with it, the value (+/-$130k is where it settled).

I imagine the worst case scenario which is that market crashes and doesn't recover within the 5-year lookback, there's no appreciation, hence no sale and no gain anyways. 

Wondering if anyone has had this experience or knowledge. If I purchase a property with 3.5% down and happens to be the day the market turns. The banks won't refi my property will they? Since the now current market va...

I see a correction coming, so the best thing is to sell it before the crash.

Is a crash in the investment market in these areas inevitable?
