Beware of wind in Texas markets and hail.

Where can I find a map of a recent hail storms path?

Better yet, I'd hail an Uber or Lyft or something.

My personal experience too and this is for those that do not plan on owning them forever and willing them to your kids or next of kin at a stepped up basis.but for those like me that were thinking hey I will own these 7 to 10 years take the write offs then sell retail..I did all that sold retail but what I was not thinking about is that a 10 to 14 year old home even though I bought them brand new.. to sell retail   what was acceptable when I bought them  tile counter tops  black appliances etc etcnow retail buyers standard is granite stainless  new paint 3 colors floors perfect etc etc.so it was costing me 20 to 25k per home to do a retail up grade to sell them for retail prices.. along with cap ex ( which in my case was minimal) since these were only 10 to 14 years old.. but then roofs being replaced because of hail that cost deductible.. and so on and so forth.. the cost of owning and keeping these nice is just more than you can raise rents in most markets.. that's my experience I got top rents in the day but they never went up much during the 10 to 14 years of  ownership.. just like I see modest type rentals that rent for 700 to 900 those rents have stayed pretty constant for the last 20 years .. and prices to fix stuff has gone way up.. 

It states that if it hails and only dents it they wont cover.

If you look at the big things that could break in the next 5 years that wouldn't be due to natural causes like hail, you might want $10-$15k in an account to start out with that is available IN CASE something goes wrong before you have brought in a decent amount in monthly cashflow to build up a reserve account. 

Had hail damage to rental properties in 2017.

I'm all for more metal roofs, look beautiful and very durable even for hail.

How serious is wind and hail in the area?
