All the more reason to lighten up...
"rental real estate @ 40.13% (lower of cost and market). Folks are enquiring whether we want to sell."

Take real estate down to 10% and take gold/silver up 10%. Alternatively, get some long term debt on one of the properties and invest the proceeds into gold/silver. You can use the gold later on to payoff the then worthless debt. OK to have most of your real estate and your main residence free of debt, but the debt on one property will decrease in value and in any event will be able to pay off this debt in gold at cheaper realtive rate.

Maybe you have time to wise up and sell at a higher price like you did with your CA real estate, but why take the chance...

just my opinion.
