So I adapt and evolve a lot, constantly, because everything is in a continuous state of movement, so I have to remain in a state of evolution. 

We have adapted and have found ways to make sure everybody is on task.

@Gervon ThompsonI would either 1) invest in real estate because depending on your strategy there’s never a bad time to invest you just have to adapt what your goals are.OR2) Pay off your student loans with you a HELOC or large personal line of credit in place so if the right deal comes along you can have quick access to cash.Also don’t go cash poor by following all of your money into student loans without setting aside 3 to 6 months of personal living expenses in savings even if it’s just a little bit each month.

Bakersfield was mostly an oil and ag community and both sectors were hit pretty hard which obviously took the area down pretty far, but in the past few years there have been massive changes and adaptations away from the solely ag and oil community. 

And... circumstances are continuously changing so the best plan on paper can be worthless in a matter of months.Take action, learn from the results, be flexible enough to adapt as things change.  

The key is to be open and adapt.

Sure it’s an added challenge but adapt or die.

Adapt or find something else to do.

I've had this idea for a while about multi-tenant retail centers converting to last-mile delivery centers to adapt to the e-commerce world, and the current situation could open the door for those opportunities for creative active investors and fix-and-flip buyers who want to get some CRE exposure.

The condo is in a midrise building with the $525 HOA covering all utilities (unmetered), amenities (pool, gym, game room, etc), parking, snow removal, security, master insurance.
