Dealing with insurance?

That route would put me out of the game altogether.With this background now set,i mean to ask:if you were in my position,how would you proceed to structure a no-money down in this instance?

What are some good strategies to get accurate utility costs, vacancy rates, and insurance estimates so that you can calculate NOI and cash flow to take to the bank for loan approval?

Your total monthly payment with taxes and insurances would be approximately $680.00 a month based on this scenario.

If it would provide value to you, what specific value would it provide: less time spent, better price based on my relationship with contractors, insurance that contractor won’t forfeit his relationship with me (his lead provider) by letting you down.. etc.Thank you all in advance!

Keep in mind that If you proceed with a Homestyle renovation loan then the appraisal will be assigning a “post construction” value so the need to pull out cash down the road may not be necessary 

An overview can be found here.The CMHC web-site also has a mortgage calculator which will accommodate high-ratio, insured mortgages.My recommendation is to learn the underlaying principals, be able to perform the calculations manually and develop your own spreadsheet.  

Meet once per month and topics are anything from insurance for real estate investors to notes.  

I have looked through the forums, but dont have clarity yet on how to handle the home insurance with the transaction.
