During such a crisis, I knew I'd have to choose a tenant who had an essential career to ensure that rent would be paid each month.

Approximately 4.3 million new apartments will be necessary by 2035 to meet rising demand, according to new research from the National Multifamily Housing Council and National Apartment Association.The new builds are necessary to address a deficit of 600,000 apartment homes that exist in large part thanks to the 2008 financial crisis, the research found.

I share that with you, but I try to fight that in myself because I know that to an extent it isn't rational.A fixed interest rate of 4.25% is very low historically, and because rates are increasing quickly I think it will be hard to get rates that low again without another major financial crisis. 

Hello everyone, I'm curious about wholesaling pre foreclosures in California (Los Angeles) , I'm a new investor, I've been researching the subject and acknowledge the risk of a rookie investor like me dealing with an owner in crisis. 

Rents in the Chicago burbs didn't go down very much during the housing crisis, some actually went up.

Others will say it's bad because we're moving closer to the same environment that caused the housing crisis 10 years ago.

Fortunately, things have worked out.Let me ask you this question, how many MF loans (5+ units) went into default during the Global Financial Crisis?

I had thought about retiring completely at that point, but when the Financial Crisis of 2008 hit, I'm glad I had kept working in some part-time capacity. 

But if it is an investment that you are now making 5% or 0% or even negative, you will most likely be willing to sell to cut your losses.I guess what I am saying is that even in a crisis, there is only about 10% to 20% of the people who might WANT to get out or NEED to get out.

It's a Cult to have such strong beliefs.Analyze what really happened to Cashflowing properties and look what rental properties actually when into foreclosure.In Manhattan, during the peak of the financial crisis, there were less than 100 out of 1/2 million rental properties that went into foreclosure.Did the low income areas around the nation achieved such low foreclosure rates?
