I am looking to start shopping for landlord insurance for a 3 bedroom house in MT and would love to hear if anyone has some recommendations for insurance companies to start getting quotes from.

@Matt J.As an out-of-state investor in San Diego, key tax and legal considerations include filing a California non-resident tax return for rental income or capital gains, managing double taxation with potential tax credits from your home state, and complying with withholding requirements on property sales.

I bought a two bedroom one bath house in Indy for 70k which was 10k under asking.

We have also completed some exciting improvements including retyring a boiler for heat/cool ductless mini-splits and 9 units being electrically updates.

Goal is to double the equity ( nothing guaranteed ) in 3 years or under time between equity growth and cash flow.I stick to more strong suburban to urban core markets.

SFR rentals typically make the most sense in suburbs where the taxes arent too crazy and you can get 3+ bedroom houses for under $325,000. 

My wife and I own four units and we’re making the jump to double digits.

Double check so you are budgeting correctly.Last, I would generally NOT recommend you use your Heloc for your repairs.

Selling an investment property can feel like a double-edged sword.

buy a small multi and rent out all of the other units. then rent out all of the bedrooms in your unit and sleep on the couch.
