There are many times that homeowners become landlords.  Sometimes it is a planned investment and sometimes it is not. It is possible the house they are living in has gotten too small but they cannot afford to sell it.  Renting the first home becomes an option. We are seeing an increase on the amount of renters seeking good residential rental properties.  

Having been landlords for many years, we will present a clear understanding of leasing. Learn legal and insurance and tax considerations to avoid liability for you and your client. Problems tenants?  Learn to handle tenant problems before they arise.

Topics include:

• Listing a property for lease and sale at the same time
• Exclusive right to represent tenant agreements
• The rental process: From application to occupying the property
• Fair housing for renters and landlords
• Risk management & tenant problems
• Marketing the lease
• Showing properties
• Landlord responsibilities
