Summary: Landlords best friend
Review: If one is a landlord and one thinks that knows everything. Well, be ready for a surprise. In this book in question, i.e., Every Landlord's Legal Guide (Book & CD-ROM) by Marcia Stewart, et al, leases & rental agreements are discussed and explained along with concept and rules governing deposits, rent rules, liability, discrimination, repairs and maintanance, privacy, property managers and evictions. The book is written in an easy to understand manner and the font is quite easy on the eye (which is a nice bonus if I may say so). Highly Recommended for people in the industry.

Summary: This is the one book you need
Review: If you only wanted to buy one book to help you get going in landlording, this is the one. It covers all the legal considerations you need to be aware of as a landlord including differences in state laws and the legal forms you need. In so doing, it covers most of the landlording issues that other books do since, really, most of them boil down to legal issues.
The state-by-state legal differences were particularly useful so I could craft my lease and properly follow the letter of the law. With just a generic how-to-landlord book, I'm not sure what I would have done. I probably wouldn't have been as aware as I should have about my local laws. And, bonus, the book is clear and easy to read.

Summary: I couldn't recommend this book ENOUGH!!!
Review: This book has helped through every step of buying my first investment property. It's like having your own professional standing over your shoulder, reminding you about every detail of every step. The section on insurance alone is completely priceless, pointing out that a landlord needs not just property loss coverage but also personal liability. And not just physical liability, but coverage of potential slander, libel, discrimination, unlawful eviction, invasion of privacy suits... And don't forget loss of rents! It's that kind of detail that maybe someone who's done this before would call 'basic.' But I admit: I am no pro, yet when I called an insurance agent and explained what I wanted coverage for, he said to me, "Um, you've done this before, haven't you?" Thank you, nolo!

Summary: No Landlord Should Be Without This Guide!
Review: This book is fantastic for the experienced, as well as the inexperienced landlord. It sets out in plain English some of the common legal pitfalls landlords run into and how to avoid them. The books cites examples - some quite frightening - of how these pitfalls occur and the appropriate action to take. The book clearly outlines the differences in particular laws between the states. It explains all aspects of landlord law from finding goods tenants to dismissing bad tenants. The book makes a great desk reference and it's cheaper than a lawyer!
