Thanks again bigger pockets for supplying everyone with this wealth of invaluable information. 

Volunteer the house as a project for a local high school shop class to come and work on the house, you supply the material they supply the students to do the work. 

Hi @Matt Ryan  I usually have a little useful welcome gift to new renters.... either some smoke detector batteries and a couple light bulbs, or a few cleaning supplies. 

With under a 3 month supply of homes, not something to worry about anytime soon.

GeoVera also does not require a four point inspection but they tend to have higher deductibles and is an excess lines (looser regulation) product.

That seems too easy and there is probably some regulation preventing it.

This would be damage from a burst pipe, failed supply line, etc.  

The prices on the market are very high due to limited supply on the MLS and increased demand.My suggestions is to target a few neighborhoods and mail out letters to multifamily property owners.  

(not raw data) But the data is reported to come from the Houston Association of Realtors (HAR)SFH supply is 2.8 months, (2014 = 2.9 months)DOM increased 7-days YOYMedian listing price is up 7%, but median sales price is not.

They can provide information to prospective tenants, show units and supply and accept tenant applications and leases.
