I am 43, have been a life insurance broker since 1997 and used to invest in single family homes.

Hi guys, I am about to renew my insurance policy for the 11 unit apartment complex that I own and wanted to check with anyone that can recommend a an insurance agent that specializes in these types of properties.My property is located in El Paso, Texas.Thanks in advance!

We're re-shopping our property and casualty insurance on our rental property.

Why would you take the risk of making those numbers from tenants when you can make them from the federally insured banks!!

The mortgage/taxes/insurance per mo = $1225If I hold 5% each for vacancy, repair and capX plus 10% for PM, then I’m up to around $1534 per mo.

As for liability, get rock-solid insurance to protect yourself.

Price/mortgage/expenses/likely rent/etc....I am sure you will get gobs of help :) Asking price is $219,000 Est taxes are $1300/yr mortgage with insurance roughly $1300/mo Rent for 2 bed 1 bath (what the attached cottage is)  in the area is avg $950/mo on the low endIt has deeded shared beach access to 2 lakes.

@Robbie Hancock - Be very sure to check flood zone and flood insurance rates.

What are you doing to cover your health insurance for you/family (if applicable)? 

Some other basic steps are pay of high interest rate credit cards, student loans, and any other debt, set up an emergency fund, and buy some life insurance.
