Just wanted to share this story to help others out there. 

Continuous participation.This is great if you are talking about an SMB with effectively connected Real Estate.Note rental activity is considered passive unless you meet the RE Pro threshold of 750 hours and more than 1/2 your time.This is the conundrum for passive real estate investors.If you have a full-time job or a large, time-consuming business it can be difficult or impossible to qualify.A huge loss from depreciation if you have one LP investment isn’t going to do anything for you.

This also leads owners to ASSUME simpler is better when it comes to management contracts.

Still working on this property.  

Can you chime in on this topic(home owner/rental dwelling/landlord insurance)? 

Backup alternative in this area is redevelopment to condos if an owner preferred that route.

I am considering renting out to a business (to find out if this is allowed in the area),  How is your experience if you have done that.

I am a new multifamily investor (5-20 units) along the Front Range specifically Boulder and Jefferson Counties and am having the same issues when it comes to getting quotes.Brokers and agents have told me that some areas near us are simply uninsurable now.Most owners that I meet have are still in policies from before the fire.What have you learned in the two months since posting this?
