A lot of new posters mistake analyzation for action.

Many investors make the mistake of over-improving their purchases in Class C/D areas, which when damaged by Class C/D S8 tenants - costs them thousands.Another fallacy of S8 investing is that the S8 Caseworker will keep the S8 tenant inline by threatening to take their voucher away.- The reality is this depends on each individual caseworker.

If something pops up in the first two weeks, then I will cover it just in case we made a mistake and as an offer of good will.The stray cats are not your fault or responsibility.

After I learnt what I had to by making mistakes, hosting open houses, and closing a few deals - I switched to another brokerage that dealt mainly with offmarket properties and investors (both residential and commercial).

Their book is super helpful, and so far I'm guilty of at least half of all the newbie mistakes they talk about, so I expect my rental operation to improve as I implement their advice over the course of next lease term.

I realize now this was a huge mistake to not purchase under an LLC.

You can lose tens of thousands with rookie mistakes.

The processor keeps making mistakes with the wire with spelling errors etc and now they say the two software systems Bank and investment company cannot integrate.  

One of the (many) mistakes I have made in my syndication investing career is to get too locked in to an operator, a deal or a strategy.
