I've seen bad assessments and management destroy peoples lives in retirement because they have no control and can't absorb the impact of bad HOA management.So I guess my vote would be to sell and look for higher NOI, passivity, and protection against any kind of market correction. 

If I get into a situation where I need to evict right away then that will impact the amount I am willing to pay...

Not sure what type of business you have or if that impacts it.

There is no universal impact, you're right.

So it's important to talk to your CPA to see what the actual impact would be.

Each of the 6 major criteria has an impact an on the loan.

Here's an academic article done by UC Berkeley that explains the impact 2008 had on California and how long it took to get back to pre-recession levels.

Quite frankly, stopping companies from scanning my credit report for pre-approvals was not a priority in terms of impacting my score positively which has been my main priority.

@Jake ReindersWholesaling is a great way to get in since you have very limited risks and if you can assign the contracts to your buyer list quickly, a recession will not really impact you.
