I don't let conditions determine my future...my decisions determine my future.I don't have a crystal ball; so, I invest throughout the cycle. 

In the other camp you pay as you go don’t scale up fast.So, if shi… hits the fan the highly leveraged person could be forced to sale at the worst time when the market went down sharply.The person who owns most of their properties they just set and watch numbers go down no panic wait it out.Some markets are really at a tipping point but the crystal ball can never tell us when the markets are going down, we just look for signs of past down turns, yes history can and does repeat itself.The number of doors I have/manage is small all are paid for but one all are worth around 1.6 .I use a heloc for reserves that would be 50k ,I just blew through money remodeling my personal house still on going !!

Let each situation determine the best action for that instance and get out of the crystal ball business. 

Account Closed Would be great if there was a crystal ball.

He is intelligent enough to know he doesn't have a crystal ball, but his concepts will sell books and maintain his relevancy.
