I advocate that people, if they kept their job, don't change their saving habits, or if anything, accumulate more savings to be ready to invest when the insecurity of the crisis is fading.We are creatures of habits and any good habits should be kept even in a crisis as we have right now.

HelloI am a novice investor and wanted to understand when is a 1031 suitable to do and whether sometimes it is more suitable to just pay the taxes especially with the current uncertain economic environment and governmental restrictions and difficulty in rent collection.

Do you think there will be a flood of foreclosures from the economic shutdown?

And an investor that's more aggressive and/or more optimistic about the economic situation would disagree with me and be fine with deploying into real estate now.

It is something to consider whether adding some to your portfolio would benefit you as a means to hedge against a worst case currency crisis.

@Marita JojoWhen you underwrote the deal; what was the economic occupancy?

As a result, I reviewed the CARES ACT; Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act (P.L. 116-136) and discovered some very revealing information, at least for me.Section 4024 of the CARES Act provides a temporary moratorium on eviction filings as well as other protections for tenants in rental properties.

My plan is to continue to build assets and focus more on growth rather than cash flow, but this economic environment along with very high prices for single family homes, has me thinking that it may be time to sell a couple properties.

The great thing about this market is also the high amounts of economic growth in recent years.

It's the economics that appear problematic.
