The Human in us desires a Coach, Teacher, Mentor, Partner or Instructor to validate the information being received within the material, to be able to then bounce the information off of others with related knowledge (BP can assist with this aspect for sure) and finally to be held accountable to turn that information into action which should result in positive growth (and even higher income/profits as related to a career or business venture).Now I know, everyone can see or not see value in investing money to obtain a foundation or even an advanced knowledge taught by practicing professional instructors in the area related to the information sought, but why don't we complain about those same investments into an Accredited College for a paper degree which is suppose to have you prepared for the "Real World" experiences that come afterwards and sometimes fall short?

Hi Thomas,First, regardless of whether you own in your personal name or LLC, you really should have all of your properties on a commercial property form master policy type policy, with an agency that is licensed in all 50 states for many reasons, not the least of which are convenience, incrementally lower premiums, receiving some coverage you cannot obtain on a "personal" lines policy and really because anything used to derive income is considered by the IRS to be a "business" exposure, just to name a few.Pricing and structure of course vary by carrier and there are less than a hand full out there that can structure things the way I've suggested.Hope that helps.Ivan
