The diverse economy has been on a steady slow rebound after GM shuttered up and devastated the real estate market in the great recession.

We held it for 10 years and just sold it after it was cash flowing $500/ month and the Oregon market had finally rebounded.

The real estate market has rebounded again and is fairly high, especially in the RO area.

By the time the market rebounds and life gets back to normal.... it will flood again.

It ended well however, because we were always planning to remodel before moving in full time, and our property value has rebounded very nicely.Lots of people are recommending the midwest. 

The markets are rebounding and in my area it’s a sellers market.

Looks like it's up and coming or rebounding depending on how you look at it.  

Yeah, maybe we are due for a 10 or 20% decline in stocks,  those kinds of declines historically happen every couple of years, but they usually with a sharp rebound. 

Auto deaths rebounding from a 50 year drop should help push progress.  

Of course, hindsight is 20/20 and back in 2009-2012 we didn't know that the market would continue to rebound as strongly as it did, BUT, I can say that if I had focused less on cash flow back then, I would have more now, because of the appreciation.
