Unfortunately, I did not verify the information provided by my agent regarding HOA restrictions and home insurance costs.

Borrowing the down payment from other people can be a powerful accelerating strategy.

I like that it also automates late fees and collecting proof of renter's insurance.

AlsoMake sure you have insurance as temp fences fall down all the time and can cause damage to vehicles or things nearby

When we were initially introduced I was going through a hardship and trying to identify solutions Jeff, workshopped a ton of strategies I could use WITHOUT using a lender, so that I could be in a better position to make a more sound decision in the future. 

The principal, interest, taxes, and insurance (PITI) might be approximately $850.

When you do find a contractor be sure to do the following: Have a clear SOWHave a written Contract in placeAsk for proof of Insurance/LicensesAgree on strict timelines so you don't incur more holding costsIt is easy to underestimate the timeline - whatever a contractor says, add 4 weeks.

Jeff personally has joined strategic calls with my accounting team as we were planning both for implementing tax strategies and for strategizing for future growth, which was about 3 months ago, bringing us to the stage we're at today as we prepare to take on this new project.

(edit: the property can have up to 3 units built on it...house with attached separate apartment + unattached ADU)Of course, other people are telling me to park my cash in a high yield savings account and just chill LOL, but I'm not really comfortable with that either as an investment strategy.

HOW do I approach my homeowners insurance about changing my policy, and  WHEN?
