Yes, you should be. Normally your new company will have someone who handles backgrounds that you should reach out to if you believe there is an error (like they pulled someone else's name).

My background check pulled in the names of 2 employers back in the early 2000s whom I never even worked for. I had to explain this to the recruiter.

For any of you real estate investors, what tools or sources did you learn from when getting started. Can’t find a mentor currently so want to find some highly recommended books or videos. If focused on the tri-state area (NY, NJ, Long Island mainly) that would be even better. My hope is to buy and rent out a apartment while also owning a house and house hacking that by renting part of it out. Trying to understand all the steps, traps, and how to find if it’s a good investment.
