My slightly over $500,000 purchase in 2008 (everybody was predicting an immediate crash} has a comparable just sell for $900,000 and a lesser comp on the market for $890,000.

I first started just before the crash in '08' and got spooked.

Worse case we have family in the new job site so my husband can crash there during weekdays until we meet the 1 year clause and figure out next steps.Thanks again, your time and insight are much appreciated.

Presently own 14 with rental income of $191,832 per year.I am 54 years old and have been in RE since 1987  I am Paul N not Paul F for the record.Been through two housing crashes and saw interest rates at 17%.Those that might be interested in getting to gather ping me.OK now I feel old.................

I still own several rentals which are upside down--I failed to predict the real estate crash, but even though they are upside down they are still slightly cash flow positive and they are less upside down then they were 3 years ago.

The RE company I work for in Myrtle Beach, SC has lost over HALF their inventory of rental properties as a result of the '09 crash and resulting shock waves.  

Frankly, I think this wholesale freight train carrying the circus is going to crash, many will be injured for a long time. 

During the crash of 2008 he lost $5,000.

Sorry for the multiple posts- the app would crash when I posted and I didn't notice that it worked- I will clean this up when I get to a computer!

I was previously co-owner of a small construction co. (2004-2006) right before the housing market crashed.
