>The reality is we are not in business to protect any other landlord than those who we manage properties forSad statement>math for our client owners works out much better to get a bad tenant out as soon as possible.i am not convinced because this policy encourages the behavior which increases the chance that you will encounter such a tenant.  

I would encourage you to analyze why it is you aren’t making an appropriate amount of money on your rentals.  

So, in the short term, I always encourage people to save, save, save.  

NY times did an expose on insurance company losses that should make you worry. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2024/05/13/climate/home-...

@Drago Stanimirovic, we encourage real, human-made posts in our forums, and your response looked like it was copy/pasted from ChatGPT. 

For the US markets a hope inspection report is pretty standard, from 2020-2022, some realtors encouraged their buyers to bypass the inspection period to have stronger offers. 

My last interaction with an agent was he was supposed to call us Monday at 10:00 a.m. about a property that was in the half million dollar range so a nice tidy sum for basically going and opening a door. 

That's not to discourage you, but encourage you.

Properties within driving distance offer several advantages:Hands-on management: You can personally handle issues like maintenance, repairs, and tenant interactions, which is invaluable when you're learning the ins and outs of rental management.Cost efficiency: Without needing to rely on a property manager from the start, you’ll save on fees.Faster response time: Being local means you're close enough to address emergencies or inspect the property as needed.Starting with a nearby property often leads to a smoother learning experience.

I just want to encourage OP to actually go there in person and look at some.
