Multifamily was certainly not immune to the impacts of COVID-19, but it does have several strategic advantages.CRITICAL PIECE OF INFRASTRUCTUREThe renter demographic was particularly vulnerable to the COVID-19 crisis.

I am thinking about strategically placing cameras in some vulnerable areas both indoors and outdoors.

The new generation of Smartkey don't have the same flaws, but they are vulnerable just like any lock.

The area is saturated with Airbnb's, so nightly rents have come downMore vulnerable to potential pandemic shut downs. 

I guess it's like apples risk vs. oranges risk: recently-built apartment complexes are apples and involve risk (the construction defects, the stress Class A experiences during an economic downturn, etc.) and value-add/renovation type business plans involve oranges risk: you won't probably see any construction defects, but you have more vulnerability that the renovation plan + improved operations plan + repositioning will not work as optimally as originally hoped. 

For better or worse, your "betting" only inflames the poor perception of agents or perhaps reinforces realty. 

I don't like businesses that are vulnerable to Amazon.

And there was nothing about it being free but when a lit match burns near dry brush, the entire forest will go up in flames.

Inspections and other legal protections insure that vulnerable people (tenants) are not taken advantage of.
