Two years ago, when I was looking at Twin Comanches I called a few companies
including AOPA. The only company that was willing to insure me (0 Multi time)
was Avemco. They wanted $8000/year. There were no ridiculous limits on the
policy: I needed to get a multi rating and could not carry pax until I had
25 hours solo. I could go solo with the appropriate endorsements.

It all depends on how much you are willing to pay.
