    • Why “I’ll just transfer it back” is not a viable strategy if a lender enforces the due on sale clause... I’ll read you the section where this applies too.
    • An introduction to the risk matrix... which you’ll learn more about in the risk module.
    • A clever way to use insurance premiums as a proxy for measuring how risky something is.
    • Evaluating the cost and value you get from auto insurance, property insurance and umbrella insurance for asset protection with actual insurance numbers.
    • Just how risky doing your own work as a handyman/contractor on your rental properties is... with numbers to back it up.
    • Why it is important to realize that you don’t know what you don’t know to properly deal with asset protection for real estate investments.
    • How property equity relates to how much asset protection you need... and what may be a controversial conclusion.
