This will be a large issue with any insurance company.

Thanks for adding me :-)

However, if your reasons for selecting different tenants are fair, nondiscriminatory, well-documented, and you applied your screening requirements uniformly, you should be protected.ThinkThe major drawback with adding social media to your tenant screening process is that once you learn something about a potential renter, you can’t unlearn or unsee it.

That... and several breeds on restricted breed lists have been shown to be less aggressive and bite less than other breeds that aren't on such lists- so I'm lost on how insurance companies (who largely work on statistics/data) have created such lists.

Good agents know that you won't be a one shot wonder, and will provide that added value to tell you to consider other properties, or if your bidding possibly too high or too low, and be accurate in their assessment.

There are areas where there are large price spreads between rehabbed and non-rehabbed properties, and this is where you will find a lot of flips taking place. 

Have a handful of SFHs and want to keep adding. 

Nothing wrong with that, I have a student rental like that. i bought the house already converted, they enter into the kitchen, the dining room became the living room and the living room the bedroom. the house still had a perfect flow through it. that will be value added for you, turning a one bedroom into two.

You should certainly never pay the full price ahead of time, and for large projects, draws are often the best option.

Longer then I would have liked but it was a large project.
