It's definitely a frustrating part of the business, especially when you're trying to maintain cash flow and unexpected repair costs pop up.One thing I've learned is that some of the more real estate investor-focused insurance companies tend to be a bit more lenient on inspections or are more upfront about their requirements before binding the policy.
