Analyze properties by looking at gross rental income, operating expenses, and the debt service coverage ratio (DSCR above 1.25 for rentals).

DSCR loans go up to 80% of the purchase price and depending on the Debt Service Coverage Ratio and your credit score you can expect rates on a 30 yr loan ranging from High 6%- Mid 8%.

Quote from @Gloria N Gear: Quote from @Owen Rosen: Quote from @Gloria N Gear: Goosehead Insurance -- I saved about $1300 across 5 properties and increased my coverage. 

Generally, the coverage of the policy will state; “The coverage of this policy shall continue in force as of Date of Policy in favor of an Insured after acquisition of the Title by an Insured or after conveyance by an Insured, but only so long as the Insured retains an estate or interest in the Land, or holds an obligation secured by a purchase money Mortgage given by a purchaser from the Insured, or only so long as the Insured shall have liability by reason of warranties in any transfer or conveyance of the Title.”

If you have insurance, generally, there is mold remediation coverage. 

If you're looking to get a condo and you purchase on floor 3 or above, I would say Flood coverage is probably not necessary.Murrells Inlet has some great things to offer. 

Hi Joel in Greenville, North Carolina-You have a rental property held in an LLC and you are looking for a lender who will refinance it.I would look into a Debt Service Coverage Ratio loan or DSCR loan that uses the rents to mostly qualify the refinance and less on you personally.

Now the tenant may have a legitimate personal injury claim and more.3) "Citing Renters Insurance declined coverage"- So, tenant has Renters Insurance?
