I guess they have immunities to it.. then you get one little black dot and people freak out.. 

It's the old story really, and even the "righteous" appraisers are not immune, that when people have a vested interest in something and someone comes along and threatens that, people fight it to the end, no matter the morality either way.What I love about the BP/Investor community, is that there is really not much room for an appraiser!!!

Investors are more savvy and less susceptible to the madness, but they too are far from immune.

However, as I suspect the market may enter recession (I may be wrong), I want to take that factor into consideration in my planning (just in case things go sideways).I would like to come up with an investment strategy that not only generates a $4K/mo cashflow, but one that would be immune if the market went into recession within the next 5 years. 

Hi Calvin,Syndications are not immune to downturns or risk. 

It won't make you immune to the negative impacts of a a correction, but you'll be in a much better position than anyone buying for appreciation or trying to time the market. 

Texas is (I won't say immune.) highly resistant to the bubble or boom-and-bust phenomenon that occurs in many of the larger markets.  

Land lords have become immune to it because of the high amount of them of the last few years but I would still be weary depending on the length of time since the short sale.
