On the other hand, passive strategy will buy more expensive house at a nicer neighborhood.

Back when a close friend of mine; he’s a commercial landlord in Phoenix who once took on a quircky triplex in a tough neighborhood..decided to reshuffle his insurance setup, I saw firsthand how getting stuck in a clunky policy can really stall your forward momentum.

It’s a beautiful custom home, one of the nicest in a so-so Oakland neighborhood ("biggest house in not the best area").Here’s the context:- Bought in 2014 for $590k, appraised in 2022 for $1.2m.- Located in a C- to B neighborhood—close to amenities and mostly safe but not for everyone.- Converted to a rental in 2024; initially rented for $4,750/month, but tenants moved out, and the soft Bay Area rental market has made filling it challenging.

And if you get named, respond quickly and through a strong law firm. 

As long as the neighborhood isn't sketchy, it's OK.

Can try to reposition to Class B, but neighborhood may impede these efforts.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, but 15-20% should be used to also cover tenant nonpayment, eviction costs & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores of 560-620 (approaching 22% probability of default), many blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 2 years.
