What's everyone's thoughts on the current 0% interest rate and its potential effects on higher valued markets such as LA and it's surrounding cities?

I have four STRs in an urban area (Boston) and and definitely feeling the effects of cancellations.

I heard a news report this morning that a lot of restaurants have converted their wait staff to delivery drivers, affording the clientele the ability to still eat their restaurant food and keeping the staff employed.I don't know, maybe I'm being unrealistic but I feel that this is going to be a temporary situation that will resolve itself in 3-4 months... assuming all the drastic measures to mitigate the spread of the virus are effective.

We'll only know what the truly effective way to build long-term wealth was after the fact.

Evictions are effectively in limbo until the courts open again.

We certainly are seeing an effect of flattening the curve from shelter in place but we also likely are seeing that from the virus infecting more people who are not symptomatic.

Like everyone else, i'm not sure the effects this will have on tenants, which translates to overall income.

For some of us, this may mean temporary loss of employment, or a reduction in income.We stand with you during these times, and it is imperative to work together to get through them smoothly, taking each other's needs into consideration and embracing a team effort to overcome the potential effects of this experience.We are committed to coming out of this with each of our tenants and their families in the same position as we are now.

I am hoping it continues to see growth as the effects from the Bay Area housing market continue to radiate outwards to the surrounding areas.

And your credit score can effect your ability to get a job, insurance rates, interest rates, etc.
