There's not really enough information to give a good answer, but I can suggest, reduce your coverage, increase your deductible, and have your tenants get their own renter's insurance.Maybe not "top" tips ...

They do penalize you for claiming the roof now. and either increase the rate or kick you out. of the program. - Speaking from experience after several successful roof claims...

Peyman just told me that the price is increasing to $11,800 (a 50% increase!)

If it's on the MLS, investors have direct access to it via the listing agent or their own agent, so why would be able to buy it cheap and the resell it into the same market that it's already sitting for sale on?

However, it's always a good idea to address any potential issues upfront to avoid complications during the sales process.In short, if your property is currently insured and meets all building codes, replacing the secondary roof may not be necessary.

You used to be able to get rates in the 4-5% ranges, but now they are in the 7-8% range due to an increase in inflation.  

There were 60,000 new listings and 17,000 sales, total new sellers are 14% more than in 2023.

.- I underwrote these projects only using annualized revenue (rent increase with some extra vacancy loss in year 1 x total units x 12 months) / total project cost- For projects I know were successful, I'm seeing a larger increase in NOI than expected so shifting to a yield on cost metric that's market adjusted NOI growth / total project cost.- I'm seeing a lot of volatility on these and can't land on what metric to use.

Every market has opportunity in the right places with the right deals.1-4 units follow the market appreciation through sales comps. 5+ units you start getting into forced appreciation through NOI approach. 

Look for areas with strong growth potential, considering factors like job growth, population increase, and infrastructure development.
