A recession isn’t a time to panic—it’s a time to build wealth. If you’re listening to this podcast, you’re already multiple steps ahead of the masses that shift their mindset with every news story shouting from the rooftops that a crash, correction, or recession is coming. Savvy investors are sitting, waiting, knowing that if a recession does come, deals usually do, too. Want to build wealth during a recession instead of losing your head? J Scott, author of Recession-Proof Real Estate Investing, is here to show you how.

J says there are three things every investor should be doing before a recession to be in the best position possible. If you follow these three, relatively simple, steps, you’ll be ready to buy deals at a steep discount while average Americans miss out on yet another opportunity to invest. This happened in 2008, and many modern investors regret not having the means to buy back then.

Plus, J outlines the real estate deals that work best in a recession, whether you’re a buy-and-hold landlord or a flipper/renovator. Some homes have serious risks attached to them during downturns, while others offer wealth-preserving (and building) opportunities. Here’s how to invest in real estate if a 2025 recession hits.
