But all interpret their own states foreclosure laws.

I am reporting every one of them now as this has gone on for years and is ridiculous that people don't know how to follow the law! 

I know nothing about real estate investment or property tax law.

Quote from @Gregory Schwartz: A local agent recently got sued for calling an old client who was on the Do Not Call list.

Hi Michael, I have found value investing in Cleveland, OH because it is home to Cleveland Clinic, lot of good neighborhoods, landlord friendly laws, stable appreciation and good cash flowing properties.

But one thing was you don't go from hey we got a problem straight to suing you try to work these out no one wins in the law suit game or rarely. 

If you are able to manage it yourself, I think you will get a lot of very helpful education in real estate by spending a least a year or two doing that.You'll be able to work with property managers a lot better if you've done the work yourself for a bit, and it also helps to get familiar with the various laws and regulations you have to comply with as the owner, even if you do have a property manager in place (e.g., the new RI rental registry and associated lead paint inspections/certificates).It's up to you whether you're able to do it, but I think you'll get a lot out of the experience if you can try it for a year or two.

A single-family home or small multi-unit property can be a great way to dip your toes in the water.Build a Team: Even if you’re planning to handle most things yourself, having a good real estate agent, property manager (if needed), and a reliable handyman can make life so much easier.Learn the Local Laws: Pensacola is pretty investor-friendly, but it’s always good to know local zoning laws and short-term rental regulations if you’re thinking about Airbnb or VRBO.Run the Numbers: Make sure you’re clear on the property’s cash flow potential.

Know and obey the law.

I think Landlords are better off using strong policies, knowing the law, acting quickly and professionally.
