I have had a few recommendations for credit unions in the area with great programs, but because my primary residence is in Florida I do not qualify for membership.

I would recommend sticking to one strategy at first before you venture into others.

If you have any recommended insurance providers I would love to hear them. 

I'd love to hear any tips you might have for someone who's just getting started.I appreciate your time and any advice you can offer.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a good and efficient Eviction Attorney for LA City?

It's great to have you here.Here are some recommendations for you:Find and connect with other BP members that are in your area: http://www.biggerpockets.com/m...Set up keyword alerts to be notified of the topics that interest you: http://www.biggerpockets.com/a...Read Beginner’s Guide: http://www.biggerpockets.com/r...Check out BP Money Podcast: https://www.biggerpockets.com/..Wishing you the best

But recommend you work with a fellow investor/realtor with regards to the listing.

When you are first starting out, I would recommend getting a quote for every individual task.

I'm interested in connecting with other investors and investor-friendly real estate agents, focusing in MTRs in Kansas City.I'm interested in a 2-bedroom house (SFR or duplex), ideally near hospitals and/or universities and research centers.Are there any real estate agents you would recommend from personal experience?

And hey, if anyone else here has some solid recommendations for LA STR insurance, spill the beans!
