I would find an investor-friendly agent in the area you like and use them instead of an all-in-one shop for turnkey.You want to buy an appreciating asset more than cash flow.

In the markets I shop, there are plenty of properties that will cost around the 80k mark total (including rehab).

You should be able to find that for your deal with similar pricing if you shop around.

What better and easier way to do that then get these stupid laws passed.OK, rant done.I agree with Ann on some of the issues she raised, keeping in mind that some of those laws/rules only apply to owner occupant loans, not investor loans, however, lending in your own area where you know your market will help keep you safer, no question about it.As for not having to market for borrowers if using a broker, I would have to toss this out - you will be doing a lot less business if you rely on brokers to find your borrowers.

But that is due to our bank loyalty and not shopping every loan.  

The city has just begun to build an outside shopping center about a mile down the road along with other improvements. 

We’re a one stop shop for everything you need.

Your best bet is to shop around with a few different brokers as each of them cannot write for all the available companies.Here are a few to check with:TWFG InsuranceRiverlands InsuranceGoosehead InsurancePat LeBoeuf Insurance

And their roof loss settlement is "variable by roof age", not actual replacement cost, nor depreciation adjusted (most insurances will hold the depreciation portion of a claim till the repair is done and only then release the funds).Make sure you compare apples to apples when shopping around, pay attention to what they give you for "free", what deductibles apply and when exactly you can get coverage from the insurance and to what limits.
