Long-term rentals provide an attractive combination of cash flow and appreciation if you can purchase them at the right price.

If you anticipate negative cash flow initially, consider how you plan to address this situation in the short and long term.Before making a decision, it's advisable to consult with a real estate professional, financial advisor, or accountant who can provide personalized guidance based on your specific financial situation and goals.

We have been using Liberty Mutual for years but recently we received the mail saying they do not provide rental insurance for single family house anymore(We are assuming it is due to Lanhaina Fire).

Over the many years, I've seen these things destroy a lot of people.IMO for a short time they provide happy days, but inside them is the shark that will "come a callin' ".As a very conservative investor, these are not on my Swiss Army Knife, but I recognize the Risk/Reward situations they are used for.

In parts of the world (US included) where there are homeless people and cheap land, this can help provide a solution.

Ya I'm providing all of it.

Many counties have online databases for public access.Legal Consultation: Since deciphering legal documents and understanding the implications of various codes can be complex, consulting with a real estate attorney can provide clarity and guidance on how to proceed with clearing the title or addressing any discovered liens.

@Travis BeckI have not reached out to MVF, if you could provide a contact that would be awesome.

Hi Rob,Insurance companies provide quotes of free, so it's a good idea to get multiple and compare.

If a tenant provided a portion of the SD I'd deduct for wear and tear and pay them that amount.
