Closing cost $9,989 While the $10,000 in closing costs appears to be high for a $68k loan, realize close to $3500 of it is taxes and prepaids.Of the $6,000 that are true closing costs, $2000 you can shop for  (which I do not think you will do better).

I have had some success going through someone named Kim Butler in my local OKC market, and she is usually able to shop multiple insurance companies when I run into a more unique scenario such as multi-unit properties.

It will come, but you will likely have to drive for shopping, eating, activities.   

Shop several brokers. 

Local coffee shops, restaurants, schools, etc.

Example - I purchased an automotive shop with all the equipment intact at a bankruptcy auction for $117,000.

They could still be shopping around thinking they can just change their mind if they find something better while leaving you completely in the dark.  

Brokers are able to shop all of insurance providers and find you the best deal!

I hope to connect with people in the community, learn how to shop investments, find markets, and all things CRE.

We have a property that a number of months ago we had a plumber that had to clean out the sewage drain lines and he took a video and pictures and the line was plugged with what looked to be industrial strength shop wipes/paper towels, tampons, rags,  ect…We got contacted by the property manager that the line was stopped up again.
