What’s the worst that can happen you get a few mourners in the graveyard to morn their lost love ones?

However, I'm thinking of the worst case scenario with a suit of let's say $4M. 

Even with a written out plan, I have seen, witnessed and experienced failure at it's worst.

I hit a ton of snags a long the way and the worst being financing.

Rents sometimes rise during recessions, but I try to plan for the worst.

(I own a good sice portfolio and we are leveraged with a very healthy equity share.)A stress test for your portfolio is basically a set of distressing circumstances, like a worst case scenario and then you look at your bottom line.What happens if:- you loose 30% of your tenants- rental rates soften- your competition starts giving out free rent- your adjustable rate financing kicks in- your annual capex spikes (well, this should not come as a surprise)- etcNow you don't look at this statically and say okay now I cam cash flow negative.

Plan for the worst, strive for the best. 

This is my first investment property, so if this is the worst that happens, I'll be good. 

Question is, in your opinion or experience, what are the best and worst times to list a property for rent?

It wasn't until Expedia purchased them and policies began to change for the worst that I started using Airbnb.
