Leases and Rental AgreementsOct 29, 2007 This is a must have for anyone who will be renting a property. I have other properties that I have rented and I wish I had this book before I rented them out!

Very Well DoneJun 11, 2007 I actually thought I was purchasing the software which would have typed up many of the sections for me - which would have been nice, but I was very impressed with how well organized and informative the book is.
Many items include the actual state laws regarding rental property which is very helpful because many of the websites are not easy to navigate.

Worth every penny!Oct 31, 2006 I will be a first time landlord and have done alot of research online as well as other books and had continued to come up short as far as detailed explanations and suggestions. This book is it! It has literally everything you need and is extremely thorough. I borrowed it from the library and have come here to purchase it. I can't do without out it.

The landlord's bibleSep 04, 2003 I was very satisfied with this book. It was so comprehensive and easy to read -- even for a non-business-oriented, non-real estate-trained person like me. There are examples, thorough explanations, form examples, and perforated, blank forms.
I think this book is must-have for every landlord or recommended for those thinking of becoming a property mgr. or landlord.
