This includes the seller maintaining property insurance in their name with the buyer added as additional interest and mortgage payments being made from an account in which the seller appears as bank account holder.

@Dayana Castellon the only marketing that would make sense is marketing Airbnb & VRBO are NOT covering already.Maybe market directly to insurance companies looking for rentals for their clients needing temporary housing while their fire-damaged home is being repaired.Corporate travel departments might be another option.Hospitals with resident doctor programs.The challenge will be doing this marketing efficiently enough to make it worthwhile.

The first mortgage, taxes, insurance, etc on this property have all been paid as agreed during this time.

My wife are in escrow on our first rental property purchase (in the Columbus, Ohio market) and are underway with inspection, finalizing the loan, getting quotes on homeowners insurance, interviewing property managers, etc.

Make sure your insurance also allows for the AIRBNB.

If the property doesn't meet the DSCR or the value basedon the market cap rate, your down payment will increase to bring up the DSCR orclose the gap to cap-rate value.Challenges/Lessons Learned: Just becauseyou can buy a property with a CMHC insured loan doesn't mean it is a good deal.We've seen a lot of investors agree to pay too much for the properties, and getshocked with a big down payment and low cashflow due to the low DSCRrequirements.
