I started a commercial and resident trash-pick up company. Looking to work with flipper in the DMV area on construction pick-up. We provide bins(20,30 and 50ft) and willing to leave at the property for a period of time (1-2, weeks etc). Please feel free to reach out, we take on small and larger projects.

As another agent said, Foremost or American Modern should do it with no issues.  You can google independent agent/broker in the city and they will have access to one or both companies. 

 I have emailed both companies to request a quote. Hopefully, this works out for me...

Thanks for your input.

Hey I was inherited a house valued around 30k with a LONGG term tenant, but haven’t had property insurance on it for a long time. To cover myself I would like to put a policy on this property, something basic and will cover me. It have boarded windows in the back and I would deem it as high risk giving the reason it don’t have insurance now. Please help if possible thanks
Sounds good my question is where did you find a three unit in PG County..that's nice

Find out the ECONOMIC occupancy...This is huge when it's dealing with this kind of deals. dont go by whats on the pro-formula, try and dig deep and see who is ACTUALLY paying rent..

@Eric Villafana

Check out a website called task rabbit it should help you find a handyman and whoever you need just need to put in the zip and they will show you people that could help... If you need any kind of boots on the ground I'm willing to help as well.

Man, you just have to take an L on this one, sorry to say. I don't understand how this was not noticed a lot earlier than 11 months. I'm pretty sure your tenant didn't call or either complain about anything the last 11 month he/she was living the life rent free, LEGALLY!!! MUST BE NICE

As stated above I think you HAVE to do an on-site inspection. Sometimes you have to be physically there to get their attention and best results. It's easy to dodge a call or text but when you are actually there that help the communication a lot.

This is just one of many reasons I don't pay for any warranty. They take your money every month and when you finally put in a claim they are slow to act or try and say it was your wrong doing. 

I hope everything works out for you.
