To save many of you time from "Googling" it, as a PIA it is my job to educate, protect and help you maximize your claims value when you make an insurance claim.

Overview of the Home Owners Protection Act of 1998 and when lenders are required to drop PMI: https://www.mgic.com/-/media/MGIC/PDFs/71-41599hopa.pdf

I have an LLC, and for purposes of personal asset protection, I'd like to quit claim my properties into my LLC, and likely start up another LLC or two, putting a couple properties in each.

And they also don't have to worry about protecting the lender with the note and mortgage wording, because institutional lenders usually provide their own loan docs. 

Hey everyone,I was reading some of @AmandaHan articles and An interesting thought came to my mind today. Let's say I have rental properties in dangerous neighborhoods or let's say some of my tenants are cash payers.  ...

Lead free is the only the way to go to protect yourself.

Fun fact: The last time California voted on full legalization (I don't remember the prop number), Mendocino (probably the largest grower county by volume) and Humboldt had the LOWEST percentages of yes votes of California counties, mostly to protect the prices and lifestyle up here. 

(I also wanted to ensure they were protected from the crazy in my family, should something happen to me!)

Hi Scott, A significant advantage of the LLC is the limited liability protection it provides for landlord & other situations in case the completely unexpected happens (accidents or injuries causing medical bills, etc.)

I actually hold each property in a separate LLC for liability protection.
