You may be profitable, but I'd prefer to avoid the possibility of having to do unnecessary repairs or not holding my tenants accountable for damage when I know their actions might have caused any unforeseen damage. 

2 years you guys have done a lot of damage.

So much propaganda they only list peer-reviewed medical journals outlining the data and conclusions http://www.dogsbite.org/dog-bite-statistics-biblio...it's not a conspiracy that most insurance companies either do not allow those breeds on properties they insure or the exclude damage done by those "vicious breeds" it's an actual, real and present danger and very applicable to the aspiring and actual professional property manager/investor.

@Martti Eckert here's the big issue that no one really talks about that you hopefully find helpful (this is copy & pasted):-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

However, I definitely recommend pictures any time a guest left damage or extra cleaning that will result in additional charges.

The problem is that there isn't a lot out there, and when looked into each comp extensively, I saw the numbers were deflated because they were 'as-is' properties with extensive damage, or properties with a well, and other mis-matched differences.

During the renovation, I faced several challenges due to the home’s age and hidden damages, including ruptured plumbing, termite infestation, rotted wood, and lack of insulation.

I would at least recommend you have them shop a policy for you.One thing we did note is that with hail damage to roofs, they seem to be decreasing coverage/increasing deductibles on that if ever needed.
