Does it make sense to take a real estate fp&a job in this environment?

Was laid off recently and I'm considering an fp&a role in RE but want to be back in acquisitions/asset mgmt. Better to take an fp&a role or keep searching? I'm not worried about my money situation, just having a long gap on my resume. Not sure how long of a gap is too long where it will hurt my chances.  Also not sure if fp&a will be much of a value add for my next role if I were to go into acquisitions/asset mgmt after. Thanks.
