Here's some copy & paste info to bring you up to speed:)---------------------------------------------------------------------------The Real Estate Crash of 2008-2010 caused real estate prices to crash across the country - but didn't affect rent amounts.

I had a tenant who was transferred days after arrival and left.   

But, he never read the mail when it arrived, so he never knew.Exciting times.  

However, when they arrived with their parents for move-in, they “freaked out.”

I've seen several crashes in my 35 years of doing this and I can say with certainly that the first people that lose money are those that are overleveraging.

At the height of the housing crash, PulteGroup had a cancellation rate of 44% in Q3 2007 PulteGroup’s cancellation rate this quarter was 12% (ResiClub).3-Nashville News - Shout out to Nashville! 

I arrive after the agent and clients and peek in their car as I walk by it.

@Trevon Burton many new investors are figuring out what investors BEFORE the Great Real Estate Crash were forced to understand - paying market price for real estate makes it difficult to cashflow.Old saying - You make your money when you buy a property.Which translates to, the future profit potential of a property is defined by the terms you purchase it with (price, financing, down payment, interest rate, etc.).I paid 10% below market for my first rental (a duplex) and thought it was a deal.- It turned out to be an okay purchase over time.Recently paid full asking price for another duplex, but got seller financing with a low interest rate, so the property cashflows.We'd need more info on YOUR purchase to give you any feedback.

Top 5% is speaking to an excellent guest experience once they arrive which is huge.
