Maintenance and Insurance

It is ENTIRELY possible to get insurance on a twin engine aircraft even if
you have ZERO multi-engine hours if you choose the right twin. Even a
low-time private pilot can get insurance under the right conditions (I sell
aircraf and aircraft insurance, so, yes, I know that it can be done).

OK. I guess there is a price for anything. Thanks for the correction.
Just as a ballpark figure, what would it cost to insure a PA44 owned and
flown by a student pilot with absolutely zero total time, much less zero
twin time?

A student pilot probably can't get insurance in a PA44 (but there are always
exceptions), but a newly minted Private pilot might have a shot if he/she
has a little bit of retractable gear time and an insurance agent who has a
good relationships with the right underwriters.

As a rule of thumb look at what a similar airplane costs to rent from
the FBO. If you fly 200 hours a year your costs will probably be 50%
more than the rental cost. If you fly 50 hours per your you'll probably
by twice or three times the rental cost.
