Description



About the Book



Every Landlord's Legal Guide makes landlords' jobs easier by putting everything they need to legally and successfully run their business in one package. Every Landlord's Legal Guide details all the steps, procedures, laws, and tips landlords should consider from the time they start looking for tenants to the time the tenants move out. There's no need to reinvent the wheel or take a chance with iffy free online forms: this book includes updated, downloadable, and customizable versions of all the forms landlords need, along with directions on how to customize and use them. It's the complete how-to guide for landlords, all for the price of less than 15 minutes of a typical lawyer's time.



Book Synopsis



The legal forms and state rules every
landlord and property manager needs

To keep up with the law and make money as a residential landlord, you need a guide you can trust: Every Landlord's Legal Guide.


From move-in to move-out, here's help with legal, financial, and day-to-day issues. You'll avoid hassles and headaches--not to mention legal fees and lawsuits. Use this top-selling book to:



  • screen and choose tenants

  • prepare leases and rental agreements

  • avoid discrimination, invasion of privacy, personal injury,
    and other lawsuits

  • hire a property manager

  • keep up with repairs and maintenance

  • make security deposit deductions

  • respond to broken leases

  • learn how to terminate a tenancy for nonpayment
    of rent or other lease violations

  • restrict tenants from renting their place on Airbnb, and

  • deal with bed bugs, mold, and lead hazards.


The 17th edition is completely updated to provide your state's current laws on security deposits, rent, entry, termination, late rent notices, and more. It also provides tips and guidance to help landlords navigate new state and local laws on screening tenants.


Attorneys Ann O'Connell, a Nolo editor and real estate broker, and Janet Portman, Nolo's Executive Editor, specialize in landlord-tenant law. Together, they are also co-authors of Leases and Rental Agreements and Every Tenant's Legal Guide.
