I had ZERO savings and had to borrow the down payment (which now must be seasoned in your account or borrowed with FHA - which might be hard in the area you live in) - During this "down time" aka "kick some butt time" you can be learning creative ways to purchase:   ie Lease Options, Subject Tos, Wholesale, Partnering, getting private lenders, etc.  

As for finding deals and evaluation, as @Jaysen Medhurst said, make that your life until you are doing deals in your head at all downtimes.

Trying to use what downtime I have to get more knowledgeable and then the time we are both available to network.

Since I have only 6, I mailed out a booklet on How To Keep Yourself and Others Well with a letter acknowledging the global situation and asking them to keep me informed about any particular challenges they may have.I’d rather know up front if they don’t plan to pay.Since the first line of defense against the virus is sanitization I checked if everyone is following protocols.Next step for one tenant is to let her paint during any downtime and have it checked by the property manager since I am out of state.

My long winded question is how does land traditionally perform in down markets and who are the people looking to purchase land in down times?

In addition, we're going to be running some facebook video ads with squeeze pages to see how they do.What projects are all of you working on with this down time?

There is a lot of down time. 

However, with a bit of down time, I am learning as much as I can.

I feel hesitant about going long distance because I would like to use my down time from work to manage and/or rehab properties, (for now) which I forfeit when going long distance.

We can typically turnaround the rental and lease it with zero downtime, but given COVID we could see a greater lag.
