Real estate opportunities exist in every market condition. Mills Act historic lofts remain a key investment strategy. Cutting costs by taking advantage of special deals for buyers and sellers is more necessary than ever before.

Fortune also favors those who sell real estate in the first quarter of the real estate recession. For Downtown Los Angeles, the best time to sell was Spring of 2018. For Phoenix, Arizona, the best time was Spring of 2019. L.A. is no longer in the peak best time to sell, but the 2nd best time to sell is now — today. Crises beget more crises.
