This book taught me how to handle difficult tenants and prepare myself when new tenants move in. I knew what to ask and forms to use. I would recommend this book for experienced landlords as well as landlords who are just starting out.

The author gave a good covering of landlording topics. Most of it was common sense information, but there were a couple of little treasures thrown in. The advice on handling troublesome tenants was interesting, but I have never needed it (so far!). For the beginning landlord, this will provide a wealth of information on topics you may not have considered. For the experienced landlord, there might be a few nuggets of gold, but don't expect a bonanza.

THIS BOOK GIVES THE READER AN A-Z SYNOPSIS OF EVERY ASPECT A PROSPECTIVE AND CURRENT LANDLORD NEEDS TO KNOW,AFTER READING THIS BOOK,YOU WILL BE EQUIPPED TO HANDLE ANY POSSIBLE SCENARIO A LANLORD MIGHT FACE

THIS BOOK IS VERY WELL WRITTEN AND EASY TO READ. IT IS MORE FOR THE EXPERIENCED INVESTOR AS IT IS WRITTEN FOR THOSE THAT ALREADY OWN PROPERTIES. IT HAD SOME GOOD INFORMATION ON PROPERTY TAX PROTESTS. ALSO ON LANDLORDS RESPONSIBILITIES. EXPLAINS ON WHAT TO DO WHEN THE TENANTS MOVE OUT. THERE WAS MORE ON LEASES(copies in book) THAN I CARED TO REVIEW, BUT IT ALSO HAD CHECKLISTS ON OTHER TOPICS THAT I BELEAVE ARE IMPORTANT TO THE LANDLORD. I HAVE BEEN AN INVESTOR FOR MANY YEARS AND THIS BOOK WAS WRITTEN BY INVESTORS THAT HAD EXPERIENCE IN THE NUTS AND BOLTS OF REAL ESTATE MANAGEMENT.IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A BOOK THAT HAS CREATIVE FINANCING ON HOW TO AQUIRE THE PROPERTIES THIS IS NOT THE BOOK THAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR.
