I am a young entrepreneur looking to educated myself further on how to start a business.  

In the future, conduct more thorough screening and educate your tenants on proper communication practices.

You need to educate yourself on what those risks are and how to mitigate them.

They can give you an educated assessment of whether they think there will be appraisal issues. 

Hi all, I’m new to this and have been researching and watching videos trying to I educate myself but I also want to see if anyone is willing to mentor at all.  

I'm new and want to meet educated and seasoned investors. 

You may not get any cash flow but you will get an education that Harvard, Stanford, or any Ivy League school can provide.  

Also, be sure to have the landlord and property management resources you will need to manage the property properly, including having an attorney on-call for guidance and counsel, forms, lease agreement, and education. 

Try to get to know them, let them know what you do and ask them what they like to buy - you may be able to flip them a deal in the future.Not all banks get financially satisfied at the auction - meaning if the property does not sell for the mortgage balance --- if that is the case - you need to meet with the trustee after a no sale and negotiate a cash price with the trustee - he is obligated to pass along to the lender.Make sure you are well prepared with a deposit at the auction, education of the value of the property and cash to close the deal.

EDUCATE YOURSELF - yes, it will take time, but will lead to a selection that better meets your expectations & avoids potentially costly surprises!
