I understand that a typical home owners insurance policy would not be appropriate in this instance and I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations for insurance companies that I could look in to.

However I am bringing my extensive RE background and my GC abilities to the project.

Not super low.for instance I borrow from banks for my activities.. 1 point and 5.5% with a bank in Charleston for new build.. and in Oregon 1 and 6...

For instance, I rent to people with no income.

For instance, create weekly trip reports when you travel out of town.

Say, for instance, the windows are drafty; you could make a comment like, "Boy!

For instance there are many properties there that sell for $20-40k and probably need their fair share  of maintenance, but providing that is done and the tenants rent and pay their rent, they could be profitable endeavors.

I've been getting in touch with investors in my local market, introducing myself while seeing if there is anything I can do to help/learn and I've found multiple instances where the person contacted isn't interested in getting help or helping because "I don't want to train my competition".

Rohan it depends on what you are trying to purchase.If by multifamily you mean 2 to 4 unit type properties for a few hundred K I couldn't help there as it's not my area of focus.I transact larger properties.So an example might be to say for instance ( I am looking for 50 doors at 50,000 a door for 600 in rent per unit, no landlord paid utilities, in a quality area. 8 cap at 2,200,000 at 25% down is 550,000. 

Yet each within their sweet spot can be of immense value to you.For instance the 1031.
