I use this book in my Rental Property Management Class,
By CPFlea (Bristol, CT USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Complete Idiot's Guide to Being a Smart Landlord (Paperback)
As a landlord for over 30 years and teaching classes on the subject in two different schools, this is one book that I have found invaluable as a resource for wannabe and experienced landlords. Don't think you know it all no matter what you read, learn, experience... I'm still picking up tips and hints! Much of my curriculum was already covered in this book but still there was more to use and learning from each other is the way to go! Very happy to see this book on the market and in laymen's terms and with the prominent hints and smiles to make it easy reading.

NOT the best bang for your buck.,
By ecx585 (United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Complete Idiot's Guide to Being a Smart Landlord (Paperback)
I bought this book as a novice in the rental business hoping to find information that would get me started out on the right foot. I WAS QUITE DISAPPOINTED. I will not go as far as to say that this book is worthless; there are some useful tidbits of information that i found helpful, but there are other books out there that are so much better. I strongly suggest LANDLORDING, by Leigh Robinson (Ninth Edition or newer). It's available on amazon, of course.

This review is from: The Complete Idiot's Guide to Being a Smart Landlord (Paperback)
This book provides good basics on what to expect as a landlord and what to do under different situations. It doesn't go into too much detail. This is apt for someone starting new and needs to know overall aspects of landlording.
