That money is liquid, FDIC insured and accessible thru an ATM if you need it.That said, proper asset allocation that matches your timeline is a always good strategy and if you have a solid RE portfolio with tenants who remain in your units despite the economic environment, a recession should be below a few other things on your list of things to spend your time worrying about.In terms of pouncing on a property when the market cools, I'd recommend continued trust in whatever deal analysis method you use.

To assure $200 cash flow, the rent price would have to be $1600/month: half ($800) for reserves/repairs, and the other half used to pay $600 mortgage to allow $200 cash flow remaining.  

At the end of the 5 years, is the purchase option just the amount remaining on the loan?

Next, you want an actual ENCAPSULANT product for any remaining wood structure, not Kilz.
