It happened during the last recession and housing crisis.

@Bart Hedgcock   I do not like him because he was wrong about the "internet economy" (tech bubble) and the "decisive war" (Iraq)  and the "Bush miracle" (Great Recession).Also he is not an economist. 

Though I feel it would be very unlikely that this market would be significantly impacted if the U.S. were to go into a long recession, it could happen.  

Money Mustache and the recession for getting us started on our real estate journey, and our gainful employment for saving up a bunch and the stock market (betterment account) for giving us an extra $10k or so for free.

Are we going to have a recession this year? 

All over the financial news I read talk about the upcoming financial recession. 

Although no one one knows for certain when this cycle will make a downturn (if it didn't already), many agree that it will come soon along with a potential recession period. 

Why would you ignore that while putting all your eggs in one basket.I would put $100K down on a 2-4 plex, $100K into 3% CDs and gold stocks to weather this trade war storm (2018), and put the last $100K into my own business as a LLC that could be used in Year 3 to play in commercial real estate (5 units or more).In the mean time shoot for a 80+ business score and 720+ personal credit score while seeing if we're heading into a recession.

Things definitely aren't as bad as they were back during the recession, but a HW Tank is still an easy payday with very little effort, if someone thinks there's no chance of getting caught.

We have found thru the last real estate downturn and recession the air b & b just like many others took a hit and just boiled down location  and amenities as to how much of a hit.
