    Just been doing some sums.

    If a property goes vacant, it seems you’d need the profit from 7 or 8 other properties to cover your repayments.

    Have I got that right?

    Alternativey landlord’s insurance will cover this? Or will they only cover a portion for a set period? I guess I’m looking for the pitfalls.

    It all depends how much the other properties rent for and their returns whether it will be 7 or 8 to cover or more or less.

    Insurance covers you for a period of vacancy. From memory, this was up to 6 months in specific cicumstances.
