Understanding their risk-reward tolerance will help you assess if there even is a deal out there for them (as Joel said; are they looking for a unicorn?)

as happened to your own primary.Without having looked closely at the numbers, it seems that expenses will take up half your rent, and your mortgage will take up the other half, leaving you zero return on your 20% down payment, unless appreciation DOES work in your favor when it comes time to sell.

If any of them say they are insured but didn't plan to use their insurer, I wouldn't hire them, unless we are talking very, very basic labor that I am ok falling under my insurance policy on the home.

All of our neighbors are just way too quiet and I have been warned that they will not tolerate it at all.

Anybody want to start a nice beer garden with zero competition?

That's why I also pay for a title policy.

Right after you close on an improved property get an insurance policy that will protect you if there is a loss.  

While I generally don't give specific details as to why we are terminating (we can give a 20 day no-cause termination), you could let them know that your contract/policy is no more than 2 people per bedroom. 

@Brett Snodgrass  in my mind totally market dependent.and generally speaking if you have no other way to get properties one probably relies on them and you wade through the garbage to find a gem.those that tie up MLS properties and then try to resell then like happens in Texas I have ZERO respect for... to me its bush league.I know my clients get deals from wholesalers but me personally I don't have time for them. far to many are brand new and do not have a clue and the one's that are experienced have their buyers already...

I don't know the specifics and if these are hard policies or general practices.
