Housing prices in Beloit are definitely cheaper than Janesville, and Janesville is (for obvious reasons) significantly cheaper to invest in than Madison.Can't be of help to the property management part though... we've looked and looked but haven't found a company we are comfortable with... your best bet there would be to join up with the Southern Wisconsin Landlords Association and network for a quick recommendation. 

The best bet is to find an insurance BROKER (keyword) and have them search around for the best rate to see if they can beat any of the three I named. 

There are several things you can look into @Nicholas Cavato, but you have to do the legwork.Having said that, I am betting that they will not be lifting any restrictions or caps anytime soon.

Best bet would be to talk to an investor friendly lender. 

It’s a SFH and I don’t rent it by the room, but I bet State Farm wouldn’t have a problem with it on this type of policy.I ended up with this policy after searching almost 6 months for someone who would cover an STR in a high wildfire risk area.

Think of it as a (hopefully not too) expensive lesson on the ins and outs of deposit management; I bet you won't make the same mistake again!

Though not cheap, Perrysburg has seen consistent appreciation, making it a good bet for long-term growth.Investing $100K+ in Toledo:If you're putting $100K+ into one property, Ottawa Hills and Perrysburgwould be top choices for appreciation-focused investments.

I would RUN from this 'Contractor', his attitude is bad and you will have other issues with him I would bet...

Sleek, stainless-steel appliances and durable, easy-to-maintain materials like quartz or granite are always safe bets.
