LOL, wild ride to say the least!

There is a guy that I see all the time doing work and he had took two different neighbors down the street from my rental property for a ride.

Invest in solid fundamentals, then sit back and ride the price and rent appreciation curves.What is far more important is selecting the right location, tenant segment, and property.Location - The location determines all long-term income characteristics, including appreciation and rent growth.Tenant pool - The tenant pool defines income reliability, including paying all the rent on schedule, length of stay, and more.Property - The property defines the tenant pool, initial return, time to rent, maintenance costs, and renovation costs.If you choose the right location, tenant pool, and property, the odds of achieving a reliable passive income that keeps pace with inflation and lasts a lifetime are very high.

This doesn’t even factor in the higher rates now and the impact it will have on cash flow. 5 percent 6-month treasuries right now are a good place to ride this transition phase out.

I've seen section 8 tenants who will be on their best behavior and stay in a property for 10 years without ever paying a dime for rent themselves and having Uncle Sam let them ride it out.

My step mother never has to drive anywhere in bad weather so she has no idea what a nightmare it is to ride on one of the Indian  turnpikes in a down poor and there are 27 hydroplaning accidents in an hour on average) so instead I am just going to steadily level up on Amazon Sales, get my used car dealers license, and keep flipping land like I do and the best I can hope for it sot become a snow bird until things change for my step mother (On a side note... my sister told me that my step mother thinks she is in early stages of either dementia or alzheimer's, and according to my sister the reason why my step mother keeps telling me crazy things about why I need to move to Florida is because she doesn't want me to remember her with one of those afflictions, she wants me to remember her as she is now and just hear about how bad she has become.

To your point, I was around in 08 and we started this fund back in 2017 seeing the next downturn wasn't too far off in the horizon and we needed a safe place to ride out a storm while still earning a decent return.

@Jacob O'MalleyLook into Sioux Falls, South Dakota- Prices are very reasonable compared to anywhere else, and with crazy growth on the rise, those prices won’t be dropping Also I snowboard, ride dirt bikes, mountain bikes and all of that myself, and it’s good here.

About two years ago, my wife invited some friends from church to go riding with us.

Plus look at their reviews.We almost always get extended families, multi families and groups coming to ride the bike trail.
