ya and when the inverted curve is being normalized, say 30y is higher than 2y then that's the sign that recession and stock market crash is always happening hahaha ;-) it's very counter intuitive, we are in similar time to where bear stearns being wiped out in 2008thing is , we are at the longest inverted curve ever for the last 30 years so chance are actually higher, but since everyone is waiting for that, it may happen (or not) lolone thing for sure is we have more layoffs in 2024 and that would impact physiologically speaking how investor put their money moving forward.Layoffs + still very high cost of capital.

We don't know how many sectors are going to be hit hard (hospitals are laying healthcare workers off) and if you are relying on another job's income to cover your issues (like when the place doesn't have a tenant, when you underestimate costs, when someone trashes your place, you have a large dollar repair that is needed, you have to hire an attorney for an eviction or a lawsuit) instead of a healthy amount of cash or liquid assets; that could really rock your finances when a lay-off happens at the same time an expected one-time hit comes (those things above happen - and never at a good time).I wouldn't take on debt for additional real estate investment unless you had at least 6 months of your monthly expenses (all those debt payments) in the bank and don't touch it.
