Editorial Review:

Amazon.com Review:
This is a practical, well-organized manual for how to be a good landlord and avoid some of the pitfalls of owning rental property. Sample leases and rental agreements, information about liability, discrimination, repairs, and maintenance, and how to deal with problem tenants fairly and legally are all contained in here. Maybe if more landlords read this book, more tenants would feel like they and the owner are not intrinsic adversaries. Even though we get along quite well, and have for the last 22 years, I lent my copy to my landlord--for the other tenants' sakes!

Product Description:
Whether you have one unit or one hundred, this book with disk will give you the legal and practical information you need to comply with your state's laws, find and keep good tenants, and avoid legal trouble.

A Nolo bestseller, Every Landlord's Legal Guide shows you how to:

* screen and choose prospective tenants and deal with problem tenants
* write a legal rental agreement or lease
* hire a property manager
* understand repair, maintenance and security responsibilities and avoid injuries and law suits
* comply with laws regarding security deposits, privacy, discrimination, senior housing, habitability and much more

The completely revised and updated third edition provides:

* a Spanish lease and Spanish month-to-month rental agreement
* a Spanish version of the required federal lead-hazard disclosure forms and informational pamphlet
* changes in state laws regarding rent rules, state lead-hazard reduction laws and more
* updated state statutes online

All the necessary forms and agreements are included as tear-outs and on CD-ROM.

Don’t lease a home without it!

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - very good
i realy enjoy reading this book it helps me understand without confusing me with law terms that would intimidate the average person who is not a lawyer



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent book
This book covers most aspects of a landlords legal obligations from picking tenants, screening, security, and evictions. Comes with a CD of standard legal forms. Well worth the investment.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great book. Made me not be a Landlord.
I got this book to figure out if I wanted to be a landlord. After seeing all the things that it involved, I decided at age 66, that this is not what I want to do. Maybe in my earlier years.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Outstanding
This is a must-have book for all landlords and prospective landlords. It is written in plain English that is easy to understand and includes copies of nearly every form you could possibly need. Well written, laid out, and constructed.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Every Landlords legal guide, eighth edition
Havent had a chance to go through the entire book; expect I will refer to it when I have a need to do so. It seems quite thorough, though maybe not laid out in a user friendly style as it could be.
