I'm thinking if you get some sort of scorecard for performance created and bought into, then you'll be able to motivate (and potentially fire) the PM Company with greater ease.  

I am on my way on becoming a firemedic and should only have a couple years left in fire school and paramedic school.

If you are asking whether you need homeowner's insurance (landlord or fire policy) the answer depends on whether you would be sad if the house burned down. 

I understand why since its blocking a walkway and fire hose station.

The market seems inflated and on fire there!

The same is true for police/fire stations.

Getting started can be like drinking from a fire hose, fun but overwhelming.

Really, i have video, pictures of the house showing how great of condition, 5,500 for carpet repair and paint is NOT my responsiblity when none of it was new, it was old and falling apart when we moved in, even a chunk upstairs had been replaced with carpet from the closet due to a small fire.

You might have to fire a few contractors along the way but it will be worth it in the end.

Overall I have made money but I have lost money on specific liens.The two other major risks are bankruptcy or fire.
