Having good processes in place is particularly important for tenant screening, move-ins and move-outs and the handling of security deposits, but I don't know how you can have processes to guard against criminals and unfair government policies like those in place in some areas during the pandemic.

All of the best communities have resort amenities like guard gated entrances, clublhouses with gyms, restaurants, game rooms, movie theaters, volleyball, lazy rivers, tiki bars etc.

It was for me.It was $3000 that I paid for a lesson in letting down my guard against slick advertisements.

As property manager we have the right and the physical and electronic safety guards to capture their SS number if they have one (this required an on site visit to our office to verify that each computer was password protected, that we had locking file cabinets etc).

On insurance, REI Guard (https://nreig.com/tag/reiguard/) should cover such properties.

What I do, however, do is this -Prior to the appraisal even being ordered, I put a CBS code on the supra box and keep it a closely-guarded secret.

security, fencing, a guard dog inside or someone stays there at night $1500carry cost of your loan/tax/insurance$?

In the Lincoln City/Newport area there is a lot of hidden potential for MTR or medium term rentals (furnished 30 night+) as there are medical and coast guard professionals that need long term, convenient housing.

Of course there are discounts for security measures, gates, guards etc. that everyone would get but homeowners premiums are derived on so may factors such as insured age, household members, claims history, ROOF AGE, age of the home, scheduled property, pets etc., so if each home is individually owned this would be near impossible. 

Remain on guard.
