Another questions that pertains to Home Owners Insurance with my refinance is how much so I get for Dwelling insurance, personal liability?

I am currently going through a divorce after 20+ years of marriage and find that I am in a situation where I need additional streams of income to realize my financial goals for my current bills and my retirement.I have been interested in real estate investment for a long time so now I am eager to get started.My real estate experience is minimal -- took classes to take the realtor license test but for various reasons never did and I have purchased 2 homes...that's about it.I'm excited about the chance to learn skills that have the potential to make me financially secure.

I allowed my other revenue streams to dwindle while I was educating myself here.  

Looking for a single family with an additional dwelling unit to be managed as a nightly rental.

We could use someone to help us navigate occupancy laws (# of unrelated adults per dwelling, safety standards), as well as someone who can help us establish a solid business model. 

If you are already a busy guy and just want another income stream, then buy rentals, notes, or partnership interests and sit back and watch the cash roll in. 

It is a untapped income stream if landlords are not accepting pets in your area.

You might be better off just having properties in your name with appropriate dwelling and Liability insurance along with an umbrella policy.

I think seller could be a candidate for wanting income stream vs lump sum.

Each property has great equity, but mainly focusing on growing cash flow streams.
