Freddie DOES allow 75% of the market rent on the other units to be included in the income calculation.

Given the pricing is the same, use the list below to eliminate the policies that do not include as many of these coverages/forms.1)  To limit your 95% of your financial risk, I would start with the following - $1M Liability, Replacement Cost, Agreed Value, Special Form, and Loss of rents.2) Secondary coverages you may want to consider if your building is susceptible to these risks, Building Law and Ordinance, Sewer Back up, Contents coverage, Flood.

  (2 years of tax returns business and 2 from personal, P&L statements down to the month, invoices, and since you have 3 extra units make sure you include the potential income you will have with tenants in the property.)
