Account ClosedAdding your property manager as "additional insured" is standard practice and beneficial for you.

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).

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.

My goal is to leverage that equity for additional income.

Landlord will promptly respond to Tenant request for repairs but will not be monetarily responsible for tenant disruptions or inconveniences during habitable times of repairs or tenant/guest injuries incurred in or around obvious areas of maintenance, repairs, or construction.We are more converned about them expecting us to pay for their losses rather than getting recouped for damages to our property. 

Avoid C-Corps, as they incur double taxation.Use LLCs for rentals and consider an S-Corp election for flips if income justifies the additional complexity.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

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?

Quote from @Lisa Albright: Hi All,Newbie here, just a quick question we are building an addition on our second home, we have a primary residence, and two rental properties.

From what I have seen, the typical remedy is termination of the contract, refund of the EM deposit and all expenses incurred by the buyer during the failed transaction.
