In this episode of Multi-Family Real Estate Investing presented by Mara Poling, The Laurens are back—and this time, we’re talking about the risks you don’t always see coming.
In multifamily, it’s often the small things that can snowball into costly problems—but the focus should be on how you protect yourself.
In this episode, we break down practical ways to reduce risk:
• Review your property management agreement (especially indemnification clauses)
• Stay on top of work orders and deferred maintenance
• Ensure vendors are properly insured
• Maintain strong documentation and consistent processes
• Have the right insurance coverage (and understand your limits)
• Keep legal counsel in place before you need it
You can’t eliminate risk—but you can manage it.
