can't get the insurance to close
**repost because I may have asked this in the wrong forum category**
I have two properties under contract sight unseen. After inspection was done out there we found some things that require repair, to the order of $5k so not that much. The insurance companies are requiring me to fix these issues in order to provide a policy that my lender requires to close. But since we haven't closed yet I obviously dont own these properties. Are there work arounds to get some sort of insurance policy that lender's will accept but allow me to repair after I close? thanks in advance!
