Insurance for Full Rehabs / Flips

[Harman N.]

Hi all,

What kind of insurance policy do you get while you're doing a complete rehab on an unoccupied property? I just bought a duplex in Ohio that is vacant (uninhabitable) which I'm going to be rehabbing, and State Farm said they are not able to insure it until the rehab is almost complete. They passed me onto something called the Ohio Fair Plan, an insurance of last resort. 

Wondering what other rehabbers / flippers do?
