On the flip side there is a need for regular family rental homes, that may not need quite as much work in between tenants, or if you are smart and update the property correctly you, there will never be much need to fix up in between tenants, after installing hardwood floors, tile, waterproof vinyl Allure, granite counters, tile surround showers, etc.  

Affordable, smart, and experienced...

Maybe all you need is to shop the insurance.

I'm wanting to get a larger lot with a shop. 

They turned out to be rather incompetent, making mistakes, correcting them, un-correcting them, correcting them again and finally cancelling my policy due to the house not meeting their criteria which has never changed.So for the last couple days I have been shopping around.

They could also be an option since they can serve as a one stop shop.

I'm somewhat new to the game (1 flip behind me).I'm on the other side of the river, but if you ever want to get together and talk shop, hit me up.

I am currently with AAA and they are getting expensive (for some reason rates are up in Indy) so I may need to start shopping.

The latter seems like it could be a smart start in an expensive DC / Northern VA market.
