“It just makes sense to buy the best cover available," said a lone voice in a Facebook group in answer to the question “Where can I get the cheapest insurance?”. 

Sadly many of the responses pointed to cut price options which is clearly the route Staywise Rentals went when they started out.  And now to their horror, an incident at one of their prime beachfront homes has brought home the folly of this choice.

In this episode and third week of the SSTIR Crazy event where we follow the issues Stay Wise Rentals are facing, Nick Massey, a seasoned expert in vacation rental insurance and the director of sales at Proper Insurance, shares his thoughts on the direction they  need to take.  

Nick has extensive experience in identifying coverage gaps and optimizing insurance strategies for property managers, and he brings a wealth of knowledge to one of the most daunting aspects of vacation rental management. He gets right into the complexities of insurance policies, highlighting common pitfalls and actionable strategies to protect rental properties effectively.
