Either decision could cause you a lot of heartache and/or financial ruin.

As someone starting out should I just make sure I get my first few deals done and not be too concerned about the fee, but then again I don't want to end up selling myself way too short, if it's just a little that's no big deal, I mean it's better than potentially ruining the deal.

The first one began in October and was quickly leased - lots of applicants and we took the best one.She was a single mom with older teens - no problems except that her mom contracted cancer so she had to move away after 6 months to take care of mom. 

It will ruin her credit and possibly make her unwilling to cooperate with you.

I don't even feel motivated to decorate nor install new furniture if another flood is going to ruin everything again.Edit: I apologize if I posted this in the wrong category but I am very much trying to use this opportunity to officially start my real estate journey and take it serious rather than let what happen to me put me down.

I know living underneath can cause certain cancer...but how close is too close?

In the past 5 years of trying to build a company with 0 business business knowledge, I've ruined my credit and I'm also being sued by lenders.

If for whatever reason, worst case scenario, I lost all my tenants and could not pay the rental mortgages with my job income, how can I protect myself from ruining my credit?

I agree that scammers are ruining for the rest of us.

It tends to ruin my day.As for the bank not being the seller, that is true (in SS, not REO) but I am not sure it helps our case and it may hurt our case.
