I launched my independent bookkeeping practice last year. 

Being proactive ensures you’re always a step ahead, minimizing risks and keeping your business running smoothly.Example: Imagine you implement an outdated tenant screening policy that inadvertently violates a new anti-discrimination law.

Heck, even within offices, the small 1-tenant office buildings suitable for a dental practice or law practice, those are in a very different world. 

I’d love any insights on next steps.

It’s all about taking small steps and learning along the way.

Self-education is the first step.

My stepped-up basis is $21m.

I've never heard of a licensed Realtor practicing property management treating anyone this way in Columbus.

what is my next step to clear up this issue? 

A mentor should have practical experience and proven success.
