@Yahir Amat Sounds like you will need to do an eviction in order to get the tenants out. In order to serve a notice to quit (first step) you need to have a UniteCT case number. You can't get a case number until you start the application process. Also, I have heard of people who have been able to evict during Covid. Bradford Mahler, Michael Clinton and Yona Gregory are attorneys who have been getting people out.

@Benjamin Hoisington

We have a small meetup of investors in New London County. If you are interested in our area, I could point you to a few realtors who work over here.

@Yahir Amat 

Yeah, the whole situation in CT is not the best, but it is supposed to bet getting better. Governor Lamont said that he plans on July 31st being the last extension, but who knows.

There is going to be a free Zoom conference with people from Unite CT, an eviction lawyer and landlords. It is going to discuss what the process will look like after the moratorium is over.

Here is the link to register for the conference: https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0...

@Account Closed

Just looked up 35 Church Street. It is a great spot for Air BnB. 

Although I haven't walked through it, that doesn't look like too much work from the pictures, mostly cosmetic. Definitely potential, which means there will probably be a good number of people looking at it. If you have everything ready to go, it might be good to get in there ASAP and put in an offer quick.

@Robert Farrow Jr

Hello JR, welcome to BP. This is definitely the best place to learn about real estate investing online. 

What part of CT are you in? You should look in the forums fore people in your area and check to see if there are meetups. One can excel quickly when, they have help from others!

Yeah, I think $3000 may be about right. The big thing is the rebuild value the put on it. It is crazy right now. I'm purchasing a house for $265k and insurance company says it costs $756k to rebuild.

@Ryan Newport

What did you get that was absurd? 

I have a few policies with @Justin Sloan that are pretty reasonable.

@Heather Armoogam 

I don't know the average but I paid $875 plus $85 termite and $185 well for a total of $1145. That was in 2017 in New London County.
