Hello BP, does anyone have any recommendations on investor friendly insurance providers in the Houston area?

Thanks @Omer Husain. Best of luck to you too as you get things going.

Thank you @Rachel Pervis

Thanks everyone for your input.

@Greg H. I did ask and the owner did have some personal issues that made it difficult for her to do much of anything. Things are better now, but it's something she just doesn't really want to deal with anymore.

I have a property I just got under contract and the seller has what she called a "squatter" in the house. Initially, the "squatter" was a tenant that had signed a lease with the seller. The lease has since expired and the tenant has not payed rent in over 4 years. The seller no longer wants to deal with it, hence why she's selling it. As I understand it, she recently just sent an eviction notice to them.

Does anyone have any experience with squatter laws/rights in Texas? 

1) What would be the proper approach for me to get rid of them and how long would it take?

2) Would there be any legal way for me to see the inside of the house before closing on it?

I've considered cash for keys, but not sure if that would be a feasible approach here.

Thank you @Nicole Garner

Hello BP,

I'm an IT professional from Houston, TX and been thinking about real estate investment for a few years now, but have never done anything. Recently, a good friend of mine convinced me to join BP.  It has been an eye opening experience and it encourages me to take action.

There's just a wealth of knowledge here and I'm hoping I would be able to absorb as much as I can and hope to be able to give back someday.

I am working on my very first deal right now and hope all goes well. I will be reaching out to the BP community for guidance. I just wanted to say hello and thank you for being here.
