As I expand my portfolio, my focus will be on diversifying investments, optimizing property management, and leveraging refinancing options to maximize returns.My long-term vision includes stabilizing my portfolio, achieving financial independence through passive income, and strategically planning for growth and exit strategies.

So would you say that living independently was very transformative and a critical step in becoming the investor you are today? 

It might be a good time to shop the coverage with several independent agents

In Florida, can a newly licensed RE agent (not a Realtor and not yet working for a broker)  join  MLS independently  or do they have to join a local board or  the NAR first?

Overall, going with an independent insurance agent will mean they will shop for the best price available… whereas if you called a singular insurer… say Progressive or whomever….

If your "property management company" has a different ownership than the properties it manages, then the property management company must have a licensed broker (independent or employing) running the operations.

I suggest using an independent insurance brokerage who can access many different carriers.

Make sure you give them a review on the platforms and if you want, you can report them to whatever accreditation board they have, but that may not result in anything.And get a second, independent estimate on repairs. 

I am new to the concept of Financial Independance all together, discovering this world in March of this year.

Remember..... there is a big election coming up and although the Fed is supposed to be independent, excuse me while I laugh hysterically.
