Everyone I know, including myself, is unloading all of their rental property. I’m guessing that we are in for a big hit next year.

Why, there is a lot of pressure in this area, and we are doing and will continue to do well. lots of out of state money coming in, and out of country’s money coming in.

“Dodd-Frank act. A solution to a problem written by two of the principle individuals responsible for the crash in the first place.”

Exactly right.

We will wish the next crises was as benign as 2008.

I’m getting rid of my Airbnb property while the Capital Gains are currently where they are. I expect to get about $100k profit on a property I have owned since January of 2017. I am guessing that travel will take a big hit next year.
