Today I want to talk to you about the biggest mistakes I made on my first rental property. Being a first time landlord is no easy task, like I thought it was going to be. You see, back in 2005 I thought after I bought the house, I'd hire a property manager and let the money start rolling in on auto pilot. That wasn't the case. I lost 3 houses to foreclosure because I didn't know what I was doing. I could go on for hours about all the mistakes I made but I decided to narrow it down to the ones that will have the most impact on your real estate rental business. Don't forget to download the accompanying pdf checklist and all the supporting docs so you'll be successful with your first rental property, even if you haven't bought it yet. It's out there waiting for you! 👉Join this channel to get access to perks and your questions answered FIRST: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsMdIzwLBuCWrFt9zqhX2bA/join 👉Join our email list so you don't miss any exclusive trainings, events or Questions of the DAY: https://aw8d9fb.aweb.page/p/6cca7548-b8c4-4a7e-a6b6-9cdc9b706c48 👉Want to sell me a house in Hampton Roads: https://www.hamptonroadshousebuyers.com/ 👉Need financing?
