Yes, @Gautam Vankatesan, I would be glad to provide full details after it is resolved but I can tell you that it's an approx. $25,000 damage claim, at this point. Have you have experience with this company or do you know of anybody who has? Thanks.

I've heard complaints that they, National Real Estate Insurance Group and/or Affinity Group Management and/or McLarens, have unfairly denied reasonable claims and have experienced what I believe to be insurance bad faith. See another thread at: http://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/95/topics/1233...

@Joe Gore - Thanks, yes, I am planning to sue National Real Estate Insurance Group and/or Affinity Group Management and/or McLarens next if they don't do the right thing based on the administrative complaints. Maybe the government will force them to do the right thing so litigation can be avoided. I've heard some bad things about them denying claims and think it was a mistake to use them for insurance. I'm told that the courts are filled with insurance bad faith cases and I hope to avoid litigation, we'll see.  

As a follow up on this issue and in addition to the info above, the situation has become much worse than expected and I believe that National Real Estate Insurance Group and/or Affinity Group Management and/or McLarens (who they try to blame) have been unethical so I am forced to file complaints the Departments of Insurance in multiple states. I plan to have all complaints filed tomorrow and will follow up.

Arkansas’s capital city (pop. @ 200,000) offers an excellent under-the-radar opportunity for income property investors to create wealth. Are you interested in buying one or more pre-rented, cash flowing, turnkey properties that could each create an immediate income of $200-$400 month?

Jason Hartman – along with his Local Market Specialist team - is a boots-on-the-ground real estate educator who likes to jump on a tour bus with clients and potential investors to give them a tour of real properties in well researched markets.

Property prices are LOW, rents are HIGH, and interest rates are LOW, creating the perfect combination for cash flow and potential appreciation. It’s time to take advantage of a great under-the-radar market.

This two day event will showcase fully renovated, turnkey properties with exceptional cash flow metrics, while Jason’s team of Local Market Specialists will teach you the fundamental strategies that work to build a prudent real estate portfolio and create long-term wealth and financial security.

Please visit the Little Rock Investment Property Tour page.

The Early Bird price is still in effect for this upcoming property tour of Little Rock, Arkansas, on the weekend of September 27th. This $147 might be the best business decision you make this year.

Some will disagree with me but I've had pretty good luck with long-distance self-management (DIY). There's an occasional pitfall but overall, I like it. Some of my properties have great managers and I'm keeping them so it's a case by case thing. I started another BP thread on this and will see if I can find it.

A good old fashioned W2 job can make it pretty easy to start a real estate investing career. I'm sure @Sara Liskey will agree but there many creative alternatives too - just takes more time and effort.

Post: Pet Rent

I love pets but have yet to see them improve the value of my properties. Are you charging "pet rent" on your rentals? I'm pretty easy going about accepting pets but try to charge $25-$40 per month for each pet. In some areas of the country, this works fine but in other areas my property managers act like it's a wacky idea. Virtually all institutional landlords are getting pet rent nowadays so it's becoming the norm. What is your experience? Thanks.
