I Was SUED For $150,000...
Manage episode 425607152 series 3555618
Welcome to the Minority Mindset Show! Ever received a lawsuit in the mail? I did. My tenants sued my real estate company for $150,000, claiming they slipped and fell in the bathtub because it was too slippery when wet. They demanded emotional damages and back rent.
When I started real estate investing at 19, I had no mentor, just books and the 2008 crash making properties dirt cheap. My first purchase was a condo, and I ensured it was top-notch, with renovations and stainless steel appliances.
Despite my efforts to keep tenants happy, I ended up with a lawsuit. In this episode, learn how I navigated the lawsuit, the importance of having insurance, and using legal protections like LLCs to safeguard your assets. Real estate investing comes with its challenges, but with the right precautions, you can protect yourself and thrive.
