I've never heard of Kin, but I too am in the market for short term rental insurance.

Local REIA groups and meetups (check Meetup.com or BiggerPockets) are excellent for connecting with both new and experienced investors.I’d be happy to grab coffee and chat about the market or share insights.

As someone else mentioned, insurance here is generally less costly than in Florida and other beach markets. 

==========================My relative is asking if this is a viable way to legally avoid having to pay taxes:STEP 1: SELL PRIMARY RESIDENCE (House A)-Sell primary residence to son-in-law for cost basis + $500K-File gift tax form for difference between sale price & market value-Not pay capital gains on $500K due to personal exemption.STEP 2: SELL RENTAL PROPERTIES-Do 1031 exchange and buy House A back from son-in-law-Rent out House A for 1 year before move back in==========================Thoughts?

I found 50 acres off market near a few popular state parks in Ohio. 

Not familiar with those markets, but here is my experience starting at 22 and what I regret after house hacking twice: https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/922/topics/1133476-hous...

Great option for buyers financing with VA, FHA, conventional, DSCR, or cash of course (no seller financing).The listing will be available starting in mid-February and most likely won’t be on the market for long so shoot me a DM for additional details and I’ll be happy to chat!

This setup ensures every project stays on schedule and within budget, which is huge in a market where timing is everything.3.

If you are willing to live in urban areas you may want to talk to a local bank in your market and see if they have any incentives or grant loans for certain areas.
