If it's in good, rentable shape, it's got to be in a terrible neighborhood or a depressed area with little or no job advancement opportunities.   

I grew up in a relatively depressed / rural area which likely (assumption based on experience) would have a number of motivated sellers.

And, as long as some percentage of the population remains wary of crowds after the economy opens up, it will have a depressive effect on the economy, and that will ripple through the economy negatively.It's hard to recall now, but if you look back at the Great Financial Crisis, you see many economists and politicians denying that we were in a recession, and then denying the recession would last long; denying there was a housing bubble, and then denying that there was a housing crash.I think it's just too early to make any solid predictions, other than long-term trends continuing or accelerating where the driver is cost savings.Though I would buy a heavily discounted multifamily property a block away from an Amazon distribution center right now. . . .

Here's how I did it.Truth is I didn't have enough forethought as to what retirement would look like, so I got really bored and slightly depressed.

That won't end just because the economy opens up again, because what we're going to see is that economic activity is still depressed - from a combination of the businesses that have already failed and the remaining caution about going into crowded places.  

The predicted recession revolved to a worst recession since depression.

I've read two studies that seem to say maybe, yes, values are depressed, but both studies were from before 2000.

That’s why it, and similar states, were hurting for funding so bad in the 2007-2008 depression since they couldn’t get more funds/taxes as the property values went down.

Granted, there will be value to find if we fall into a depression.

I think all this "free" money will keep us afloat this year and the real depression will come later.
