Recently I checked and now they have paid the wrong tax bill a second time so instead of having a zero escrow balance after their first mistake, I have a -$2000 escrow balance.What can I do?

I have heard from several seminars, meet ups, mentors, etc. that one of the biggest mistakes new investors make is that they pay contractors money up front and end up getting ripped off (the contractor never does anything and just takes their money and runs).

It's a backstop for the worst case scenario.

I am looking to network with folks to gain knowledge and avoid mistakes.

It can be a great niche, and the worst case scenario is to lease to someone that doesn't need the handicap accessibility but it still fits their needs.

I made a mistake on a recent property I just purchased .

My last multi sale I put in the best appliances and granite in the worst neighborhood and sold it the highest ever in neighborhood within 1 hr on mls.

That's when mistakes are made you're set back years.

Don't mistake these things for not taking action, they are critical for most people to feel comfortable to jump in, just like you would before starting any business.
