Rental Property in "War-Zones"
22 July 2017 | 8 replies
The tenants usually didn't care, because they would just go find another place to rent, with no repercussions (at least in the areas where my properties were).I decided a while ago, that I'd rather have quality cashflow then quantity, because at the end of the day, the quantity you should be getting is often not equal to the amount you actually net.Plus there seems to be less options later, if/when you decide to make some changes (sell, exchange, etc).

Should I Stay or Should I Go Now? If I Stay There Will Be Trouble

Forcing appreciation gives you some extra equity insulation from a drop in prices, or if you would rather be more aggressive it allows you the ability to cash out the extra equity via refinance or 1031 to redeploy it, but this also has added risks, there is no free lunch.Conservative financing, with lots of equity and cash flow margin for error, and cash reserves is another key ... in a downturn the quality of cash flow is every bit as important (I'd argue even more important) than the quantity ... what levels of margin are appropriate depends on the quality of the asset, which directly affects the quality and volatility of cash flows; a class B property will tend to have lower initial cash flow but more steady and increasing cash flow than a class C property ... judging adequate margins of safety is the really tricky part, because not only do you need to factor in quality as stated above but also what may be perfectly adequate in a "normal" market may be grossly inadequate in a downturn ... and yes, cash flow is affected in a downturn, it is not somehow magically immune; rents may not go down, but they very often do stop.
