19134 is a large/diverse zip.

I allowed fear to stop me from taking a chance on myself, to believe in my ability to battle diversity and overcome hardship. 

AS @Greg H. says sometimes you thank your lucky stars your offer wasn't accepted.I think an excellent strategy in the Permian basin is to continue to watch the market at this point or divert your attention to a more diverse (less petro dependent) area. 

Having this mix allows me to capture high returns from the stock market in good markets, but also provides me the diversity and cash flow for when things get tough.

Big diversity in types of properties. 

I administer SDIRAs and they provide more choices and diversity but only when the time is right. cash is king today and Generally hold it while things are crazy.

As in any portfolio diversity is best.

However, you'll often find niche gyms, breweries, restaurants, and more diverse & wide-ranging tenants signing leases when standard retail/strip mall sites become too expensive. 

I would look for markets with more diverse economies.
