We have several hundred keys that we have to inventory and manage.

We have bid on several properties at typical foreclosure sheriff sales, so we are familiar with the process of doing title searches before bidding.

We wasted several thousands of dollars with them until we realized that they weren't able to handle the project...After we fired them they turned around and offered me a job ;>) - I politely declined as I don't think the industry is setup to help us. 

I went on to acquire several other credentials both before and after becoming a CPA, driven by my desire to master every facet of the profession.

During this initial research I read several articles which state that coverage in high risk states has significantly declined since 2015 due to policy rate / deductible increases such as what I am outlining above.

Although, I'm sure you have found a solution to this considering this post is several years old. 

For example if I sold my business then used the proceeds to acquire another one or several? 

After speaking with several commercial realtors, I realized my frustration is shared by many.

This intermediate step allows you to develop the required systems while the consequences of mistakes remain manageable.One strategy that worked well for several investors I know: partner on your first larger deal with someone who already manages multi-family.

There are several other items I have to comment on, but the rent/cap rate is the biggest issue, I believe.Thank you!
