Topic: Insuring Your Rental Property -- What You Don't Know Could Cost You!
Speaker: Casey from Noel Selewski Agency
When it comes to insuring your rental, one size definitely does not fit all. Should you go with a DP1, DP2, or DP3 policy? Do you need loss-of-rent coverage? How does liability really work when you’re a landlord?
Most investors don’t realize there are multiple ways to structure insurance for a rental property—and the differences can be expensive if you pick the wrong one.At this month’s Earlybird session, Casey will break down the different options, explain what those terms mean, and help you understand how to protect yourself, your property, and your income.
