. - First off, it's a better thing to invest now BECAUSE the market cooled off - I'd encourage you to shift into that frame of mind......now is the time to be greedy while others are fearful!

I call it rent-shifting, and unfortunately, it goes on a lot. 

HelloI just thought of a possible way to shift funds out of my 403b retirement fund and wondering if it's valid.I work for a university and have a 403b.

It always makes me feel good knowing I can rent my properties out either way if there's ever a shift.

When the currents eventually shift, the people sitting on the shore will be late to notice the shift and they'll take time to get back into a rythm.

i would not make a major, dramatic shift... just cuz. 

Hey Julian - I think the pad split\rent by the room strategy will become increasingly popular, along with a continued shift to multi generational living, as housing becomes even less affordable.

Some of them have gotten a little snippy about it and I’ve gotten some pushback like “Now I have to work 3 overtime shifts since my rent doubled” obviously rent didn’t double, and things like “surely you can afford that you’re rich you raised our rents so much” But when rents are $600 below market rent you can’t even run an improperly managed building you just purchased.

@Akshay Bhaskaran I’m not going to speak to any of the locations but my family lives north of Dallas and the heat wave this year and presumably with global climate shifting heat waves in subsequent years also has really been destroying foundations.

I work 3rd shift and usually sleep from 8:30am-6pm.
