I see buyers getting surprised by this often when buying older buildings.The more time you give an agent to quote the better the chances of getting a competitive rate - a lot of buyers start calling agents when they are going to close and want it NOW NOW NOW> you will pay more this way.Give the insurance agent a week or two to shop the rate and get the agent accurate documentation proving the age of updates to the roof, electrical, plumbing, hvac, etc and good photos of the property to allow them to sell the property to underwriting.A lot of people don't realize two sales are made for an insurance policy - one to underwriting and one to the person buying the policy.

He and Kristin Beach scammed dozens of people to the tune of millions from their companies “Land Flipping 101”, “Six Figure Land Flipper”, “One Away Ventures”, “Top Dog Land Deals”, he also owns “Griffin River House”, and more.

@Brandon Martinez - To reiterate a lot of people's points, I am still finding cash flowing properties in Western Mass.

This is a great place to learn and to connect with people so take advantage of all the great resources.

Typically, you will get hit with 0.50-0.75% in rate to take the non-recourse option.  

The cash flow is good but people have complained either it was too old, or bad area. 

People have found amazing deals in the worst of markets.  

If there are people buying them, it's best to see how they're buying them. 

I think most people would, so I'd definitely lean towards keeping it as a rental. 

People are spending way too much time crunching on a screen and not viewing homes in real life.
