About this episode

This episode discusses common insurance mistakes made by real estate investors and how to protect their assets effectively.

Most real estate investors spend a lot of time learning how to build wealth, but far fewer know how to protect it when disaster comes. In this episode, Thomas and Nate sit down with Michael Fried, Vice President and Partner at Strategic Claim Consultants, to break down what real estate investors need to know about insurance claims, asset protection, and avoiding costly coverage mistakes. Michael shares why insurance claims are so often underpaid, when investors should bring in a public adjuster, and how poor policy design can leave owners exposed after fires, water damage, storms, and other major losses. Whether you own one rental or a large portfolio, this episode will help you think more strategically about protecting your properties.
