UPDATE: rents really never dropped in Detroit after the Great Recession.Only property values did.This is pretty much true of the majority of the USA.Detroit values now pretty much exceed their pre-crash highs and have exceeded it in many Neighborhoods:)

Go on YouTube and you’ll see all the fear monger crash bros predicting a crash in the RE market.

And the earth might swing out of it's orbit and crash into the sun, but guess what I'm not going to worry about it.

Your Money is in Tampa if you live there for two years and then SEll before the CRASH.

I bought newly renovated condos there after the real estate crash in foreclosure in 1992.

Unlike the smokies, my property values are continuing to rise which takes away much of the unpleasantness of the negative cash flow (value up close to $300k last year).Those who are over extended and will be forced to sell in the smokies may lose a lot of money.

In HOPES that market will not crash/correct itself in the meantime, that crews I hire will work diligently and timely, that there will be a demand for the end product when the work is finished, and my realtor will be able to sell it before I get penalized and foreclosed by the lender.

When the housing market crashed in 2008 I defaulted on numerous subject-to deals.

To pass the exam I recommend you take "Real Estate Trainers" Live Crash course.

COVID lockdown "crashed the system" so to say.
