For that reason for larger purchases, like 20+ units, I will wait another month or two to see how things play out.

I think we will have access to many more deals, but they may have to be long plays to close later.

Costco plays a big part.

It sounds like you obtain an attorney just in case the tenant wants to sue you for something, if you have an attorney already you are not playing catch up at that point.

I also have some STRs along the coast, and when you compare the cash flow from a long term rental versus a short term rental, you'll see that the STR play will increase your cash flow 2-3x. 

The ego plays such a large role in REI, you only have to read the forums every day to see that, that we need times like this to stop us from thinking we need to get to 100 doors and start realizing we could probably make the same money with 10 smart doors.

The only thing we know definitively is that we want this house as our home for retirement and we don't want to rent it out for at least several months while we see how everything plays out in terms of the economy, landlord restrictions due to COVID-19, and whether or not we are going to move into the home sooner than we thought.Advice is much appreciated.

@Russell Brazil Do we get a correction in r.e. prices or a boost from safehaven plays?

I am playing with the idea of calling land owners to buy cheap land for myself and broker deals to people looking to place their money in land.

Such as what will the Federal, state and local Governments do to offset it, (some areas take steps to uplift their residents lives, and some areas give only lip service to it steering money to certain things that do little but continue the suffering as a profit center--such as some areas helping the homeless by giving them shopping carts vs really helping them).Also the underlying industry base will play into it, for instance Houston makes chemicals that are used worldwide in other industries, is that a positive or a negative---(and for how long) time will tell.
