A sewer line collapse is often an unknown-unknown.

In fact, lots of experts are saying that the housing market should largely be excluded from the coming collapse, because it is not the reason the economy is struggling, as was the case in 2009.

All I am saying is there are reasons for population decline that are not obvious or signs of decline.Depending on whom you speak to, people have been predicting the collapse of Illinois and Chicago and many other places for many, many years.

Yo Issac,I am in your same boat graduating college in one year, hearing all of the people signaling the end of the world, market collapses, and hyperinflation.

Is this all just a racket and I need to wait for some economic collapse?

I bought a House where the sewer was collapsed, inside and outside the house, the floor joists were on dirt and the whole first floor had to be redone...and a bunch of other stuff on top of that so on that one we didn’t make a lot of money...but it was buy and hold so it just pushes out the beak even.

My rental house in Tacoma is an old house and part of ceiling collapsed.

So you have lessened your risk when bad sh*t happens since you own it outright.But you have restricted your ability to expand, and scale because the $$ is all in your house....lower risk but lower returns......The "sweet spot" is to leverage enough to maximize your returns, but not enough that when bad stuff happens....and it will..... you don't collapse under all that leverage.

I put it on a collapsible stand with wheels from Tool Box brand - stand is excellent for the money. 

, doors jam, and even have the roof collapse on that side.
