Hello everyone,I'm in the process of purchasing my first fourplex rental property, wondering what other investors in the area use for rental property insurance in the Cedar Rapids area.

You have to screen the company to verify they hold the appropriate licenses, insurance, etc.

One thing every investor needs to be aware of: No real estate fund or syndication is FDIC insured.You may come across phrases like "the money is in an FDIC insured account," which only means the funds are held in a bank account, not under someone's mattress.

Our company has access to a 90% LTV cash out refinance loan for primary residences with no mortgage insurance.

insurance companies are also charging extra to cover ice machines. 

Since this happened during the storm, you might also want to check your insurance coverage

Do the taxes and insurance on this property count against my DTI (No escrow account required) 2.

I'd been searching on and off for almost a year to find appropriate insurance for my Tahoe STR. 

But now that the sellers want to file an insurance claim, I’m assuming the claim will take a good amount of time to be processed.
