Go to higher  Authority  and plead your case, the governor the may or whomever  

You are a landlord which,  means you are guilty unless you can prove yourself innocent beyond any doubt.

Had to go in front of the housing appeals boards and plead my case about why they shouldn't fine me the $5,000 max for my violations.

I would also feel guilty for not using up my additional 7 potential fannie mae mortgages with current low rates That being said I will definitely be refinancing these with a blanket loan when I hit 10 properties so it may not matter.

I totally understand what you mean by "analysis paralysis" which is something I find myself guilty of at times.

Missing pre set deadlines(time is$$)poor communicationleaving homes set once you get starter check.Taking on more then you can handle in one month ( guilty- know your capacity)Bad subs-bad can be bad as a person, bad at showing up on time, bad at respecting the property and neighbors. .ect. ( i always ask myself would i send tgem to my gmas)bidding low to get the job, then charging more. inacurrate and not being thurough when bidding. 

On the other hand you might feel guilty for being a Scrooge just after the holidays, so probably raise the rent halfway to market this year and bring it up the rest of the way next year to ease some of the pain.

Yep- I’m guilty.

In many states when you have a complaint made against you via the real estate commission or other government or psuedo-government agency...you are very often guilty til proven innocent.

I'm guilty of it too so don't get me wrong I'm not bashing people.
