Aside from real estate being very local, some general principles I follow that serve in any economy :1- Follow proper underwriting principles based on my specific investment style ( value add etc..)2- Use leverage to my advantage but never over leverage my position.3- Keep proper cash reserves.4- Educate oneself in the economy of the market I’m investing in, including jobs, changing demographics, historical cycles etc...5- Surround myself with the proper team members who will cover the areas I am weak at and are real experts in their niche. 6- Knowing when to cut my losses.7- I use real estate investing as a way to achieve more important milestones In life including family, health etc... this keeps me focused on the big picture and adds more objectivity to the process.8- The bigger the portfolio, the more risk one gets exposed to in a turning market and the harder it gets to change direction.
