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.

We were also able to recover $1,550 in liquidated damages from that resident which meant that you were not out of pocket at all for that property turn.

They focus on safety issues, such as wood rot, water damage, and structural integrity of balconies and decks.

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

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. 

If, any bad tenant could be evicted in a few days and held responsible for the damage they caused.

Reaching out to other investors in the area to find someone trustworthy and switching things up before the damage became too costly.From what I’ve heard in Bloomberg, cities like Indianapolis, Omaha, and Austin are all great for rental investments.

What happens if a tenant causes significant damage?

That led to uncovering significant water damage throughout the first-floor unit's bathroom, forcing an immediate renovation.

@Jeff SkinnerRecommend 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?
