And how many properties did you have, when you decided to handed to a property management company?

Multiple, billion dollar companies are investing substantial amounts of money into our area, such as Intel, Google, and Amazon.

That means the insurance company cuts you a check equal to your rent for any month the property is uninhabitable (e.g., fire, flood, hurricane).

That was a new manufactured home too, so it meets latest code.A lot of manufactured homes are financed through the company that sold them or they are sold on a contract for deed basis. 

How do you know the condition of those three trades?

Chalk-it up as "company policy".

I have a "template" of a purchase contract from a title company, but was curious if anyone on here may have access to a really nice contract.  

Therefore this is something that should be negotiated before a contract is signed.Something you wrote that stands out is the fact the GC purportedly has 40 employees but then only has one relationships with each subcontract trade.

However, even after that many title companies won't insure the title until you have owned the property 1 or even 2 years.

Anyone have any good insurance companies that would offer around that $1200 mark around Texas?
