Liability policy" makes me think of insurance - is this what you're talking about?

When evaluating cap rates I'm taking out taxes, insurance, 8% vacancy, 10% repairs, 8% cap ex, and 10% property management fees; however, if I lower all of those percentages then my cap rate is higher - is everyone using lower percentages and that's how they're finding cap rates of 10%, or am I truly looking at a lot of overpriced MLS properties?

With both of us debt free, we are starting our wealth accumulation/building phase of our life, and we know we need three things from previous research weve been doing, that is paper assets (jobs,401k,Roth IRA, Tax Accounts...), Business (have a few ideas of some businesses), and what brings us to this awesome place, REAL ESTATE. 

 If a sell/owner was to carry a loan through the sale of real estate property, can that seller take out mortgage insurance on the buyer?

My insurance agent told me the vacant home policy is applicable if I go the first route and builders risk if I go the second route (tear down to basement foundation).

That will enable you to get started faster on your life's goals.   

There's a healthy investment to get certified, insurance, etc so wanted to get a temperature gauge before diving in. 

In my analysis, I'm assuming a 30 year loan with 25% down, 10% for vacancy, 10% for property management, 10% for repairs, and 5% capex (+ water/sewer, garbage, lawn care, and insurance).
