I'm open to investing out of state and I'll be sure to reach out with questions as they arise.

I have questions into them on whether they would cover it if the commercial policy denies it.Here's the exact language of the exclusion - "This insurance does not apply to animals "bodily injury" or "property damage" arising out of the ownership, use, loading or unloading, handling, or demonstration of domestic or wild animals, including but not limited to dogs. 

Feel free to reach out if any questions arise.

100 percent. there usually is a solution, often the best opportunities arise from seeming ominous challenges\

About property management I hope to purchase a new or fairly new property and find a good local handyman for small repairs and hopefully some good contractors for any other specific repairs that arise. 

F&G has a great funding program, that is easy to understand, and they are hands-on when questions arise.

Most novice investors don't have large reserves to handle the kind of unforeseen issues that may arise. 

You will want to take this responsibility seriously, as when a claim arises, your phone will be ringing.  

The issue arises when you are only logging time for managing the manager / education and research hours only. 

Any issue that arise in an inspection would have to be disclosed to any potential new buyer.
