Except for short-term surfing cases of buying and selling. My opinion is that op still maintains the high purpose of selling and combining with leasing to maintain the ability to recover capital smoothly to dilute loan packages (if any).
In conditions of economic crisis, it will indeed be very difficult to be able to have a return on capital from investing in real assets because everyone will of course first fulfill their needs rather than thinking about their long-term residence, although everyone wants to have an apartment or house, of course they must first save and also have to work harder to be able to have money that they can save to achieve their desires.
Choosing to sell or rent assets that you already own will indeed help you to return the capital that you have spent to build real assets, but if you choose not to sell them, of course in the future the price of the real assets will continue to increase, but it will take a long time if the area of the real assets is in high demand, of course the price will continue to increase.
