Quotes: 

“Everything is about relationships. You can feel like you know what you’re doing, but to be able to confirm that, you have to have lots of friends in the industry. People that know you, they know what you can do. And when they have something, they will come to you.”

Quotes: 

“If you’re not paying rent, bank that money. Invest it in some way, put it in a CD, whatever you’re going to do, and get a little bit more for a down payment.” 

“There’s always going to be a risk involved, as everyone knows with investing. Right now, that risk might be slightly higher, but I do think the market is going to rebound. I don’t think we’re always going to see these trends of these hot cities coming down. Just find that level of risk that you’re comfortable with. Whether it’s with investing, or really anything. And if you are comfortable with something, go ahead and do it. Don’t play the what-if game.”

Kyle Herring is a public adjuster and partner at Strategic Claims Consultants. Kyle has nearly 2 decades of experience as a public adjuster and has worked on major disasters across the country. This is one of those topics that a lot of investors don’t think about until disaster strikes. I think we can all agree, owning investment property is a great thing when things are going well, but what happens if your precious investment property sustains major damage or a complete loss? In today’s show, Kyle and I will discuss how to successfully navigate the claims process should you encounter an unfortunate loss to your investment property.  

Quotes: 

“100% of the time we can get you more money than your private insurance adjuster can. Just like you wouldn’t send your 1099 to the IRS and ask how much your taxes are, it’s the same with insurance. You need to tell them this is my benefit; this is my claim.” 

“Don’t be penny-wise and dollar foolish. A few dollars saved on premiums could cost you tens of thousands on the backend whenever you actually need it to come to fruition.”
