We should get together and decide on the best action to get our money back.I bought 3 properties from them in 2017 - 2 in Baltimore and 1 in Philadelphia.They breach contract all the time (one example is that you are supposed to do an inspection before they charge you the last 5K but they simply deduct it from your guaranteed rent) and do not keep you posted on what's going on with your property.

Some investors have reached out to me asking about STOA and possibly getting together to file a class action lawsuit against them.If you have been effected by STOA's recent changes, and are stuck with contracts that they backed out on, please contact me.

In all honesty, I find it quite nerve-wracking to take this first step alone and all really I’m looking for is reassurance that my actions are correct.A little about me: I’m a medical scientist ready to pivot into real estate.

What are my first moves to take action?

The first step is definitely to get familiar with the landlord-tenant laws in Jersey City, as these will guide your actions.

In general you create liability for yourself when you know about an issue and don't address it OR you should have known about an issue and didn't take action.

this reply is specific to F&F.This is exactly what I was thinking and the whole reason for my questionIt's a good point you bring up Miguel, but your post is not correctly worded for this, because what your really asking is: "I am new, do I need to pay a "Guru" to learn the things to take action, OR can I hire a Professional Investment Real Estate REALTOR/Real Estate Agent and do just as good or better?" 

I wonder what happens when your customers realize that they can get together and file a class-action lawsuit against your organization for an insignificant sum of money.Thank you for your response and for highlighting an important aspect of your comment...

The latter is actionable and what leads to success.

@Mike Calvey I can't say strong enough how flawed and WRONG of an action UNDER-pricing rent's is to "get a good tenant", it's ALL-kinds of wrong.
