I got un-renewed by my old ins and rejected by almost all ins companies (except for some crazy ones quoting me 10k/year) on my primary house, which is far from any fire zone but I had 2 claims on my 2 rentals (I am a small player so under my name not LLC) in the past 3 years so I got fked. 

It's a relatively small group - we try to keep active participants to around 25 during the calls so that people can speak up, engage and participate.

Looking forward to engaging with this vibrant community and learning from all of you!

Clients now only use what they need & not much more.We have it duly written into all of our Leases, so it's fully disclosed and we engage all prospective Tenants in an honest conversation about paying all of their bills before they move in. 

From what you’ve shared so far it’s gonna be difficult for anyone to give you a sense about deal quality, and the value proposition to investors, but I’d be happy to engage. 

You need someone who clicks with you personally before engaging in a mentor/mentee relationship with the dedication and stress that may be involved.Where to find a mentorStart by looking within your existing network.
