Rating:
Summary: California Landlord Law Book: Rights & Responsibilities
Review: Hardcopy book is excellent and a must especially for people with only one or two properties. I would expect that most professional landlords would know most of the information.

Summary: This is a MUST read for any Landlord
Review: I just bought my first rental and used this book for everything from screening tenants to the agreement forms. I found the book easy to read yet detailed in terms of the legal ramifications when renting in California. When I had an outside attorney review my agreement, they had nothing to add or suggest, it was all covered. Not bad!

Summary: Guides you through the process
Review: When we moved to a new home, we decided not to sell our old one but rent it out instead. However, we've heard a lot of nightmare stories about being a landlord, so the idea was pretty scary even though it makes sense for the long-term financially. This book gives you great advice and even examples of doing things the right way and the wrong way. I certainly had a lot of misconceptions about what was legal and what was not, and I think it would even be helpful even if one decided to hire a property management service just to understand liabilities. After reading this book, I feel comfortable that we've done everything in a legally correct way, and that we did a good job of screening our tenants. The forms provided give you everything you need to start renting out a place.
