Landlord’s Legal Kit For Dummies is a comprehensive guide
to the laws and legalities of renting property. This one-stop legal

Landlords have a responsibility to provide a safe, fully

law requires of you. You also need to understand your rights, and
the actions available to you when the tenant is in the wrong. This
resource brings you up to speed, with the most current information
about residential rental property law. The book covers privacy
rights, domicile laws, paperwork, and more.

and it frequently leads to misunderstandings that can hurt your
wallet and your reputation. Before you lease another property, get
all your ducks in a row with the essential instruction and tools in
