The challenge in buying in low cap markets is that you normally need to put a couple hundred grand down, passively absorb a large neg cash flow, or find an innovative way to reposition, rent and manage the property.Because I'm an active investor, I always look at option 3.

Looking for an innovative brokerage with strong market presence.

In these cases, the specific sector was over-inflated and collapsed as faulty - maybe even fraudulent financial vehicles and/or practices were introduced to suck even more money out of the sector as it heated up.Just because the dot com sector eventually swallowed reality and fixed its fundamentals on value products/services, the energy sector resolved in the courts, and the housing sector flushed out its overly speculative practices (many of which were really bank-driven, primarily as loans issued to folks who had no business buying housing - and toxic mortgage packages created with weird names and no vehicle history to attract investments thus made with no due diligence and no 3rd party oversight - which took unprecedented government intervention and bailout across many sectors to fix), doesn't mean that the next sector downturn trigger doesn't lurk out there.What some call creativity or innovation is really just greed masked in packages so new and weird that due diligence is nearly impossible.  

At least not without some sort of major technology breakthrough with regard to CO2.I think you may see job losses slow down or stop in coal country, but even if coal output remains the same, the industry continues to innovate and needs significantly fewer employees .
