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
An all-in-one authoritative guide every landlord needs

Every Landlord's Legal Guide is the most comprehensive and up-to-date legal and practical guide for residential landlords. The best, most effective way to make and save money as a landlord is to keep up with the law --and with Every Landlord's Legal Guide, you can do all that and more.

From move-in to move-out, this book covers a wide range of issues , including fair housing, repairs, sublets, screening for good tenants, environmental hazards such as mold and bed bugs (yes, bed bugs). You'll find legal and practical solutions backed by many 50-state charts with specific laws for each state. This complete resource will help you avoid hassles and headaches -- not to mention legal fees.

Here is everything you need to:

  • choose tenants
  • prepare a lease or rental agreement
  • collect and return deposits
  • avoid discrimination charges
  • hire a property manager
  • keep up with repairs and maintenance
  • minimize liability
  • deal with problem tenants
  • and more

    Every Landlord's Legal Guide provides over 30 forms you'll need, including leases and rental agreements on the included CD-ROM.

    The 9th edition is completely revised with updated information, and discusses new developments in domestic violence protections for tenants.

    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.


    5 out of 5 stars Great book. Made me not be a Landlord.   January 28, 2008

    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.

    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.

    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.
