I'm currently based in New York City, and after watching a few friends enter into real estate from a few different angles, I started to dive into researching the industry recently.I'm a 2x entrepreneur, building companies in both the creative and fintech space (as a side project I also created a non-profit during COVID to support the restaurant industry).

Matt totally agree when my company was Heavy into buying court house steps the most effective thing I bought was the dump trailer with power lift... hands down.. if you don't have power lift your guys are stuck at the dump for and 1 hand unloading the trailer or truck.. with the power lift you lift it drive forward its dumps in 5 seconds our done.. great thought there.. and when I retired from that end of the business I sold it for what I paid for it..

PM companies are always looking to acquire others to grow.

I got a quote from a insurance company I use for my own home in CA.

It was my company's first rental property purchase.

Talk to your insurance company about it, this is not the first time they have experienced this.

I run better companies than the next guy.

I am also looking for a property management company in the area.

Well I have favorite, but it is usually for big companies so it will be out of the question.

The major Insurance companies have either Pulled out, Limited writings or stopped writing entirely.
