Hello Corey. What if he shows you as an additional insured, as a loss payee, leaving his current ins. in place so as to not cause concern and them you just take out a personal property policy covering all your personal items?

Working on buying a new rental house via a contract for deed. My problem is the seller has the taxes and insurance taken out of an escrow account. I don’t have a problem with the taxes coming out of escrow, but I will need to pay the insurance on my own because it would have to be in my name correct? BUT of course you have the “due on sale” clause. I am worried that if the seller stops paying taxes and insurance into an escrow that when I buy the new insurance it will show up at the bank that I am the policy holder on the property not the person on the loan. How do you handle this type of problem.

Thanks in advance.

Corey

I agree with Paul. Ad your name to existing insurance.
