Call customer service with a local title insurance company and ask for a trio (printout, map and deed).If all you are wanting is the name of the owner the title co should just give you that verbally.

Do we need to get workmen compensation or other liability insurance?

true cash flow is only going to come either (1) after many years of ownership, when the property is stable and rents have gone up; or (2) with a completely different, probably tougher strategy or niche.think about a down payment, closing costs, light repairs, rent ready costs, commission to the property management company, then you fix a dishwasher, then in year 2 the furnace goes.

To protect your assets, creating a separate LLC for the third property would better isolate liability, though it adds administrative and insurance costs.

Same for many of these costs (except title insurance).

There are ways around it but you have to know regulations before you can insure you are in compliance.

More stable in my opinion, just read up on current restrictions or coming restrictions.

Others are considering commercial real estate with stable tenants or the build-to-rent model for more control over costs.

Your insurance covers your stuff.

Not a stock broker or an insurance salesman.
