Many policies for vacant property exclude theft with the exception that some (builders risk and COC) may cover theft of “building materials” - since the AC was already installed it would be a stretch to call it building materials.Last - I bet you have ACV coverage for this type of loss which means they will depreciate for the age of the AC before paying out on a claim.If the cost of the unit is $3000 and it’s 5 to 7+ years old it would be adjusted heavily for age - maybe 50%?

@Hahna ReyesI'm biased as a licensed engineer, and I don't know the details of what you're dealing with but I'd bet that that project costs you about:~$1000 max in materials2 weeks full time labor, maxSo, that might give you a feel for what you should be paying. 

Diversify over a number of different “bets”, I.e if you decide to invest in real estate syndications, invest $50,000 in 10 different properties with 5 different syndicators, not $500,000 in one deal.2.

I bet those rooms are smaller than your Europe vacation rental.

I would bet that lady DID have the keys on her or she wouldn't have shown up.

Hello all, I have found a foreclosed on SFH that needs some love right near my current residence the current list price is $7,500 but I would bet it could be bought for less.

Your best bet is to walk away and move on to the next property. 

If so, betting on long term appreciation without cash flow is speculation.

Your best bet would be to hire a property manager to look after properties.

but your best bet is to fully educate yourself.
