Don't forget to contact your insurance company - as breed/weight restrictions can vary from carrier to carrier.I usually suggest adding a section in the lease that is a notice to the tenant that the insurance on the property will NOT cover the tenant's personal belongings or their temporary housing in the event of a catastrophe.

For $20 per month the provider attorney can help you with this.I had similar leak problem with a $10K deductible and my contents insurance carrier would not pay.

Once a new carrier is on or during the process of acquiring, I would add have myself added as additionally insured.  

If you get lucky could get a carrier on top of your roof, endless possibilities to make additional cash

Definitely compare what brand of equipment each is using, a Goodman is going to be a lot cheaper than something like Carrier but will most likely give you a lot more trouble.   

With Email, scanner or fax, phone, mobile notary and a mail carrier, you can make it happen.

Actually shopping a broker is more effective than shopping carriers.

Its gona be an awesome year Joe Carrier!

For whatever carrier you write, back out there dividend by dividing the first year illustrated cash value by 1 plus the dividend rate.

@Antonio Evans   I think in the last couple decades we have a mis conception of what an Investor is.IN my mind and investor is usually someone who has a good to great job .. saves some money and Invests in some passive real estate.. while building their carrier and finances.Its not really that easy or possible to go from Zero to investor without some outside income and substantial at that.. ergo folks recommending you continue your sales career.. sales is one of the highest paying anyone can enter fields there is ..
