Quote from @Zara Massoud: Hi, The PM company we signed on has a clause to add them as 'additional insured'.

The landlord should be named on the tenant's insurance policy for additional protection and to assist with tracking compliance.

I am considering building up on my fourplex. 2 additional units.

Additionally, I would like to attempt to do the process Owner/Builder with subcontracting work out as well as doing some of the work I'm comfortable with (I have some experience with bathroom & kitchen remodeling an am not new to the construction industry).

If you sell a property, and do a 1031 exchange with the proceeds, but don't need all the proceeds for the down payment of the next property, are you taxed on the additional profit that isn't part of the exchange?

My goal is to leverage that equity for additional income.

I wouldn't bet my life on 50%, but I would bet they are more problematic than the typical long-term renter.

In addition to that, platforms like HomeAdvisor or Angi are great for finding vetted professionals, and local builders associations or the Greater Beaumont Chamber of Commerce may have directories or recommendations. 

Honestly, upgrading to a commercial-grade stackable setup like Speed Queen or Maytag might be your best bet.

If you could furnish the rooms, I'd say that is best bet for cash flow.
