A couple ideas below:- Have tenants pay utilities if they don't already- Refinance into lower rate- Increase rents (or convert to mid term/short term rental or rent by the room)- Call the county tax assessor's office to ensure there was no mistake in the tax increase- Call your insurance broker to get you other quotes- Sell the property and 1031 into a better market that does not have those issues- Self manage if you currently have a property managerHope these help!

I know this was my mistake for not getting them before sending the money he requested (he'd done a couple rehabs for me before and it wasn't an issue).

And, there will be some "mistakes" on every list.

(Btw, I found this to be a very common first time landlord mistake).
