Do you think your insurance policy will cover you on any liability when they find out you are not running a legal operation?

After it's rehabbed, you could then rent both units and use the cash flow to offset another primary residence or potentially refi and use those funds to scale your portfolio.I wish this policy change was being talked about more because it unlocks a creative new strategy for investors in MA, since you do not need to owner occupy to do it! 

With the new rent control policies, there is zero incentive to lower rent as it may take years before you could recoup that with the minimal increases they allow. 

maybe the answer is some sort of Hunters safety course we all took as kids before we got our first guns.. you have a investor safety program that is not a guru LOL..

This tells me two things: Obtaining a variance will be more difficult because there are already policy considerations in place intended to reduce density & (2) There is clearly an over supply of rental units in this area otherwise the overlay would not exist. 

., they win. totally hahaha , so the shark (read: goverment and their allies like jp morgan) is screwing the small dog and small wolf like the GP level, while the small wolf is screwing the humble chicken ( LP).When everyone destroyed due to their own shark-inducing-volatility policy and then everyone dies, they come to rescue the market hahahaha lol i am lucky this is not my first busted cycle so i can comprehend whacca going on behind the screen. 

I think there's a good chance that we will see little movement from the FED to see how the economy reacts to their last cuts and to see how the incumbent president's policies impact the country.

The point is you have to have a policy that holds true across all tenants and all situations. 

Make sure you get the right property insurance policy. 

Once your asset's equity exceeds your umbrella policy it makes sense to start thinking about more advanced protection.
