In most areas, the landlord needs to attempt to mitigate their losses, so they can’t just leave your place empty and collect rent from you for months on end.

Not a deal breaker necessarily, but a risk to be aware of and mitigate.2.

In my opinion you should always stay away from anything that you consider extremely high risk unless you can mitigate the circumstance to reduce your risk to moderate or low; insurance, partners, cost etc . 2cents.

We want to make sure we cover everything an mitigate the amount of mistakes so that we know what to look for while we ramp up in the next year or two.

If it's smart, I would also consider an 80/10/10 scenario with a piggy-back loan to help mitigate having to pay PMI.Investment-wise, I think the smartest thing to do is get land and put a modular home on it.

We try to mitigate failure.I believe there are words of caution in @Brandon Turner’s podcast (BP podcast 092) also.

In an effort to mitigate the amount of catastrophic mistakes that I’ll make as a newbie, I’m running numbers on potential deals to refine my understanding.

Now that I have a wife and three young children I realize that my risk taking affects them, too, and no matter how well I mitigate my risks there's always the chance of a deal or two going bad.

Plus as you start to have more rentals you can mitigate the risk and therefore having less money as a group per house.

You can do everything you can to mitigate your risk but there's always the possibility of things not going as planned.Have you worked on rebuilding your credit?
