Yes, the lender was Premium Mortgage.

One of the major driving factors for increased premiums is the carrier's requirement for higher replacement cost limits on file for buildings. 

FL has a ridiculous number of low-value properties, everything from essentially campers on 55+ lots to MH parks everywhere to run-down shacks in much of the rural areas, all of which is going to drag down the average premium.

Paid platforms often offer additional features like market analytics, off-market property leads, and filters for investor-specific criteria, giving them a leg up over free options.Exactly, most platforms have to offset cost somewhere because of how expensive it is to keep the data up to date.

I am curious to learn from others as well  :) I looked at GHL for my CRM but felt like it was full of features I'd probably never use and the cost was considerably more than what I ended up using: Monday.com.
