@Gabriel Bures, I am sorry to hear about the layoff.  

Failure - Those who don't educate themselves, don't spend time learning, don't pick a strategy, are impatient, and want to treat real estate like buying a stock in Robinhood.

Ask them to overcommunicate in the beginning and you can lay off as you build trust over time!

I love your company logo btw :)  Best savings account I know of now is w/Robinhood at 4% (sometimes 5%). 

@Johnson H. thanks for the analysis . need to start ur meetup virtually again .YEs by december i was being aggressive but the rate at which rents are down is surprising . whatever the reason maybe ( Telecommute, lay off) .

Many friends in the bay area have told me their companies are starting to do major lay offs, from Cisco, to Stanford University, to non profit such as Girl Scout. 

There is a lot of expansion going on it seems, however i know this area has had a lot of worker layoffs due to the oil field slowing way down

@Raja Polineni people are being laid off left and right and with layoffs come vacancies and your ability to subsidize your properties if you are one of the layoffs.

For example, a large company in my city announced layoffs.

Lay off the guy.
