I think one of the biggest mistakes any investor who manages their own stuff is this:
1. Being a friend rather than a property manager.
This leads to common problems like:
1. Not immediately issuing eviction notice
2. Late rent payments
3. Making excuses to not evict tenant.
4. Feeling bad and getting screwed over when tenant is waaaay backed up in rent.
We can be professional but don't go to the darkside of personal. Banks don't do it when we're late on our mortgage payments.
Anyone have any other ones they've experienced and lived?
