. , I tend to more go on my visceral experience by being in the market and seeing for myself.

I'm a very new investor and wondering if anyone here on BP has experience with Rondo Investments as a PM in Detroit.

Learned so much from this experience and can't wait for the next one!

@Kim Huynh - lots of insurance brokerages use the same carriers so it is likely that it is going up a lot everywhere (that's my experience).What I have done for a bunch of years is to partially "self insure".  

Does anyone have experience with this company?

But I wondering how difficult is it to get a DSCR loan without experience building or buying rental properties.1.

Specifically, I'm looking at Joshua Tree and Borrego Springs.Does someone here have experience in these two markets? 

They're all going to use NOI/PITI, but you'll experience a range of DSCR requirements which will directly affect your max LTV and you'll also experience a range of rates.

What is the most effective way to get a mentor?

I manage around 400 rentals with 14 years of experience and have never been sued once.
