@Jared Smith the entire valley has been a great place to invest over the last several years and is continuing to rise in healthy appreciation and a popular USA city for people to move to take advantage of the many job opportunities and low property taxes our city has to offer!

Debt is not a problem if your reserves are healthy enough. 

Think buy with intent to do some small cosmetic changes but capex is healthy and sell, or hold and rent.

For me, after 18 years of selling, I've found a company that not only offers a better split and complete return of the company's split that is awarded to high producers, but also offers an opportunity to have a healthy passive income long into retirement. 

Appreciation is very healthy, which is good for those who hold properties long enough.

So I still have relationships from my past I just limit them in scope and have healthy boundaries.     

We usually have a fairly healthy reserve which is essentially our set asides for maintenance, capex and so forth.

@Gil Segev I’m not saying a recession doesn’t impact everyone- no one is completely immune to economic downturns.

In what ways do you promote a healthy, long-lasting relationship within your team?

Inflation normally accompanied a healthy economy with low unemployment.
