It could be an expensive battle. 

.), easily get cold feet, battle financing issues or sometimes just ghost you at closing.Selling a home to a tenant is probably the better path (lease option), but you really have to work with them every month and coach them to get them ready to buy the home, otherwise, 70% will not execute. 

These are battle scars that will make your processes better and more efficient in the future.

I am interested in investing the proceeds from my last flip into section 8 rentals in and around Detroit, Albion, Battle Creek and Jackson micigan.

For example, they lost a fairly major battle when they tried to argue that only licensed professional can manage short term rental properties. 

He is a marketing expert and unfortunately, Tyler's story and advice will not have anywhere near the reach that his videos will, so for a while he will win the PR battle and continue to be in business. 

Agreed mate,I'm all about taking personal responsibility and I have been swindled many times in a similar fashion like many feel on this thread.It seems like these investors including myself in other instances get negligent and don't read between the lines.Especially after trust and a relationship have been established, we become gullible and don't second guess or question.Maybe it's greed for some but in my instance it wasn't.Just innocent and trusting stupidity (No, I'm never a victim as that is ******** mentality in my book).I had some spare $$$ and wanted to diversify in other assets through folks I considered friends and trustworthy business partners.Didn't even think twice to look things over.Looking back, it all makes sense now but it's easy being a general after the battle heheI only blame myself here...I mentioned in the thread further above that I lost to the tune of hundreds of thousands of dollars.Again, it is what it is and it's a lesson.Only myself to blame and have always taken the high road in such instances.As much as I'd like to fight for justice and go down the legal path, it just isn't worth the time and emotion.Upwards and onwards.Become better and make more than you have lost.Each to their own and that's just my personal "modus operandi"

I know the battle has just begun.   

You also have to take into account that paying agents a salary to give advice for free is an uphill battle and a money pit.

Also there are rules with past due notices etc. as well as it relates to this.If you were to damage someone's credit and then find out you were not compliant, you could open yourself to a lengthy and very costly legal battle.
