If the deal collapses and I would lose everything, I'm out.

If you stopped raising new capital or couldn't raise new capital the entire thing collapses when people slowly start asking for their money (because you cannot pay them so you have to start liquidating assets, and the value of the assets isn't enough to pay back the investors...so you are back to raising new capital).

BUT if a pipe bursts, the roof collapses, or a fire happens in that commercial unit, that's not really the place of the renters/liability policy to kick in -- it should be covered by the landlord policy as it's a loss on the physical property (which the renter does not have an insurable interest in); a residential policy would not cover the commercial unit, and that's the gap I'm seeing in the current setup regardless of who is named on said policy.Best of luck and take care,FrancineCA Insurance License #4138783 (In case you're in CA)----------------------------------------------------------------Disclaimer: The information provided in this post does not, and is not intended to, constitute specific insurance advice.
