They are looking for a 3-month lease with the option to extend and are "willing to pay a premium".

In addition, how do I know if I'm receiving an appropriate risk premium for the extra risk I'm taking on in a Real Estate Investment when comparing to just investing in stocks?

I’m sure you can guess that there is a cost for this, an interest rate premium, with more points.

Read the insurance policy, ask what additional coverage options are available and the increase in premium for each one, make a decision.

But it did half the policy premium.

Thats operational risk that commands a premium.

@Chris Tracy I have rent rolls, and the T-12 is some of the information they wont give until a letter of intent or buyers agreement is submitted,I asked for the property cards, tax info, insurance premiums for the last 3 years, and entity tax returns.

thats why I cringe when i see folks talk about NPN  that are now performing and should be bought at a premium
