The insurance company may settle if the tenant has a case, but it be from a position of strength and primarily to reduce the cost of the fight.  

Quote from @Arya Taghdiri: Hi all— I’m just starting out as a real estate investor in the Cincinnati market and would love to connect with others who are in the same position or have experience here.

Must be disciplined and cash flow positive. 

Or, do he need to send some type of escrow instructions that outline 1st position, will fund after all docs signed, etc?

And what's great here in Columbus is we still see off market deals that are positive cash flowing.

Also interested to know who has had positive experiences in the area.

I, too, shifted from working with adolescents and young adults to getting into Real Estate... in hindsight, that past experience has helped me in this field, and I believe it will help you as well.2 things I recommend for new BP members in your position:- Use the search feature to find people and topics of interest.

To address this, request documentation, update the lease, address rent payment, consult an attorney, and maintain a positive tenant relationship by communicating clearly.

We're still seeing deals that hit the 1% rule, have positive cash flow, and lots of potential for appreciation.

I’m excited to finally be in a position to take the plunge into real estate investing!
