One of the most concerning factors is the question of how you can protect yourself from lawsuits stemming from properties you may never step foot on.

Said it made it soft to step on.Strange, or something that people prefer?

Hello BP Family,After researching, analyzing many deals, networking, and understanding potential markets around me, I’m finally taking a few steps forward.

I often break it down into the "five pillars" of protecting your assets.The first pillar is avoiding unnecessary and risky activities (don't drink and drive, insurance generally won’t cover your poor decisions) and take good care of your investments - these simple steps will help you prevent lawsuits before they even occur.The second pillar is a good insurance policy as that cover the majority of your exposure.
