Can you tell me about your experience with them? 

In my experience, there are a range of starting-off experiences, but one's experience is not always indicative of someone's desire/drive/commitment to pursue and thrive in real estate. 

Unfortunately, I’ve run into a major issue: I received a Stop Work Notice on my property in Covington, GA, because I didn’t have the proper permits for the renovations.I want to resolve this as quickly and smoothly as possible without jeopardizing the project.Can anyone offer advice or share their experience with:1.How to address the Stop Work Notice with the local authorities?

What are some other things I should retain to make the landlord experience easier?

Has anyone have any experience acquiring multifamily property using a SBA loan like to get your thoughts?

Has anyone had experience with coaching?

That's probably what I'd do first unless you just have no experience doing these deals at all. 

That experience made me realize I want to dive deeper into this space.Right now, I’m in the research phase—figuring out locations, property types, and strategies while working on funding and budgeting.

I manage around 400 rentals with 14 years of experience and have never been sued once.

From my experience dangerous neighborhoods, as your parents put it, are best left to people that specialize in those or grew up in or live in those types of neighborhoods.
