Trouble getting insurance on fixer upper live in house hack
Hey everyone,
I'm working on my first deal for a live in and fix up house hack duplex. I'm having trouble securing homeowner's insurance on the home and just curious how other's have gotten homeowner insurance on properties that need some TLC? I think I made a mistake (was honest) and shared my inspection report with the insurance agent(s) about the current condition of the house. I've now had multiple insurance companies/ their underwriters deny the home. I think I shouldn't have shared the inspection report with them. Curious if anyone has advice on how to secure and what the best homeowner insurance options are for owner occupied duplex that I'll live in and repair for a few months until everything is completed.
Thanks!
